This reading test is very interesting - it's just like going to the eye doctor once or twice every year: this reading test gets circulated about twice as year as well! (**cough** repost **cough**)

Now go and email it to 10 of your best friends - if you do, you spelling and eyesight will improve - guaranteed!

Sorry if I'm coming across too harsh - I'm only bustin.

Subject: Alzheimer's Test

Alzheimer's Test-

Count the "F's" in the following text:


FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...

(see below)


















How many did you count? 3 ?



Wrong, there are 6 !!--no joke.
Read it again.
The reasoning behind it 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.

Send this to your friends-it drives them crazy

So if I mail condoms to ten of my best friends...?

Sorry, Z, hadn't seen this one here before. Actually, though, I would be surprised if there is any remaining knowledge not yet captured in the vast Pelican archives. Truly the wisdom of the ages, or at least a good start on it.
