Quick Eye Exam . . .
This will blow your mind...! Just do it - don't cheat!!!!!!!!!!!! Try this
its actually quite good. But don't cheat! Count the number of F's in the
following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE
RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC
STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS

Managed it? Scroll down only after you have counted them!

OK?

How many?

Three?

Wrong, there are six - no joke!

Read again!

FINISHED FILES ARE THE
RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC
STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS

The reasoning is further down...

The brain cannot process the word "OF".

Incredible or what?

Anyone who counts all six F's on the first go is a genius
Three is normal.

OMG that is weird. I got three the first time I read it. Suspecting a trick, I went back and read over it again, getting 3 once more. I only got 6 after reading the explanation

WEIRD!

Well I must disqualify myself since I have seen this sort of thing before and the first thing I did is count how many OF's were there and then looked for other F's. So I got all six -- DOH!

I went backwards through the text so I wouldn't get confused by what was written. Counted six.

I got 30...

I counted the E's and the R's and some others... Does that make me a genius times five?
