[Please do not be tempted to check out the answer, you'll ruin it;-)]
READ this sentence:
OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE

EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.
Now count the F's in that sentence. Count them ONLY ONCE. Do not
go back and count them again. Check answer below...
go back and count them again. Check answer below...
ANSWER:
There are six F's in the sentence.
A person of average intelligence will see three of them.
If you spotted four, you're above average.
If you saw five, you can turn your nose up at almost anybody.
If you caught six, you are a genius.
There is no catch. Most people forget the OFs.
The human brain tends to see them as V's instead of F's.
