Re: The F Words
I counted 6...only because I'd been hit with this one before...most miss the "of" words.

Re: The F Words
According to Cambridge University your not stupid Chris ....just normal. The mind has a difficult time processing the word 'of'. To automatically recognize it is very rare even among geniuses.

Re: The F Words
Very old. Don't read, just look for the F's or whatever.
The trick to it is instinctively doing more than you are asked. You WANT to read it, not look for the 'f's'. The same applies to certain customer relations. They only want the 'F's and it's up to you to sort them out.
