Initially 5 then 6 when I thought I should check.
They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the evening,

was I the only one that cheated at this by counting them with the find function?

Obviously or they would have all said six! I found five - missed the second OF on the first line - but if I'd read it through again I would probably have found it. Quite clever - and the bit about if it was in lower case would it have made a difference is interesting. Yes, it would have - because we look for the shape of a letter and they look completely different in upper case.Originally Posted by thehollowmen
Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

I used a "find" function: part of a neural networked pattern recognition system with optical input (among others) and audio output - serves me fine most the time.

It got me the first time I seen it as well but now I know what to look out for. Though I dont think "of" is the only word, I am pretty sure there are others as well. Bit more research me thinks...
good on ya everyone who gave it a go those who got 6 without cheating I give you a big thumbs up.

I got 6, only cause I read what Biff wrote.
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods

Yeah the brain processes a sentance written in capitals differently since we associate captials with acronyms

There are 6. All you have to do is highlight the text and type ctrl-F for the text search. Then search on the letter F and count how many it finds.
As I understand things, its not that the brain cant see them, the letters are all picked up by the optic nerve and transferred thru to the brain. It however, second guesses what the sentence will read based on the shape and strength of the stimula that it receives. In other words - it doesnt process information it doesnt need to as soon as it figures out what it thinks it needs to it dispenses with the rest of the information. I think there is also something to do with the fonts used. Upper case doesnt contain enough visual differences so the rods and cones in your eyes dont pick it up and the brain substitutes (not sure if thats true or not - just something I heard).
Makes you wonder what else yoru missing.
From memory I think the limbic system is reponsible for filtering senses (the thalmus) and the left parietal lobe for understanding writing. I did read up on it once, but never paid attention to it.
There is another part of the brain that discards most of the pressure senses - for example, your clothes touching your skin, the weight of your body on the chair, the temperature of the air against your skin etc. All is picked up, but most is discarded.
The is a nother bit that makes you aware of your tongue
No matter where you put your tongue in your mouth it feels uncomfortable.
Its triggered by people pointing out that you are aware of your tongue.

So you will not want to be made aware that there is no such word as "stimula" then...There is a part of the brain that really really hates being made aware of things
