OK, count the number of F in the following text: +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE- SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF- IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Done? 3? Nope! Count again, it’s 6 Explanation: Apparently, the brain cannot treat ‘OF’. If you counted 6 ‘F’ the first time, well you deserve a cookie oh and check out this site [http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/body/interactives/senseschallenge/senses.swf](http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/body/interactives/senseschallenge/senses.swf) ---

If you read sentences backwards when proof-reading you are more likely to find spelling errors and repeated words, it even helps for counting the f’s in the sentence. I found all 6, got a 17 on that test though resizing that line and the ball are hard to do. ---

My suggestions would be to replace the double f with a single f since it sounds the same anyway and then replace the f with the way oph the phuture the ph. The change must start small and then work up to a total replacement in order to prevent the threat oph rebellion. ---
