ALZHEIMER'S EYE 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 'F's?
Count them again.
WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke..
READ IT AGAIN !
Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 'F's before you scroll down.
The reasoning behind this is further down.
The brain cannot process "OF".
F INISHED F ILES ARE THE RE SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI F IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.....
Incredible or what?
Anyone who counts all 6 'F's on the first go is a genius.
Three is normal, four is quite rare. ..........................................................

Morning Vic,
Crikey, I must be a genius, read through the sentence within a few seconds and counted 6 F's, thought this seems pretty straight forward, and it was.

Don't worry Vic, I'm the same, could have sworn there was only 3,
Had to read the Perisher a few times to find them all,
I'll blame the Spec's I wear.

I saw only three, but I wonder if the real reason may have something to do with our brains being distracted by the splits in "re-sult" and "scienti-fic". Alternatively, could the fact that all the "obvious" Fs were at the start of a syllable rather than at the end have influenced our perception? Or could it simply be that the brain's processing of uppercase is responsible in some way?
