    ALZHEIMERS' TEST
    Count every "F" in the following text:

    FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
    SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI

    FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
    THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...






    (SEE BELOW)
    HOW MANY ?











    .... 3?
    WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke.

    READ IT AGAIN !

    The reasoning behind is further down.

    The brain cannot process "OF".
    Incredible or what? Go back and look again!!

    Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a
    genius. Three is normal, four is quite rare.

    The Forum on Spirituality has been closed for years. Please bring it back, there are lots of Spiritual people in Ireland and elsewhere.

    Wow, I'd seen this before so was on the look out for 'of's, I got the first one but glazed over the other two.

    I got 6. I r teh genious.

    If you read the words your brain tends to skim over small things like 'of'. Trick is to read the letters, not the words. The words themselves are obviously chosen to throw you off.
