You think you're smart?
Try this out... Read this sentence:


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






Now count the F's in that sentence.
Count only once, don't go back a 2nd time. Scroll down for the answer.














ANSWER:
There are six F's in the sentence A person of average intelligence finds
three of them. If you spotted four, you're above average.

If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody.
Before you look at the explanation, feel free to go back and count again,
there really are six in there. Give up?
If you caught six, you are a genius. There is no catch. Many people forget
the "OF"'s.
The human brain tends to see them as V's and not F's.
Pretty weird, huh.


Hope you enjoyed that one.
Joan.

I got six, but then I have done that before

Scored five first time, I missed the sixth F in scientific for some reason.

1,2,3,4,5,6 easy....whats hard about that?

sorry but I cant see how anyone can NOT get all six

maybe because I've just finished off a nice bottle of red wine I was concentrating harder to compensate for being under the influence?

It must be aimed at woman, they ALWAYS overlook the obvious
