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.

Nope, all you have to do is read carefully and be mindful the fact that the word you mentally pronounce "ov" has an "f" in it.

The brain is a good pattern sensing system but can be fooled. If you take your time, you don't need to cheat using ctrl-F.

There is a part of the brain that really really hates being made aware of things

So your brain would really hate to be made aware of the fact that you've misspelled at least 2 words in your post?. lol

Hmmmm, methinks you got 6 because your brain squashes all words together. Have you heard of spaces? they tend to make things easier to read, try it sometime lol.
