Here's a quick test of intelligence. There are no tricks to the test, and it looks pretty simple. But let's see how YOU do. Read this sentence:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.
Now count aloud the F's in that sentence. Count them QUICKLY AND ONLY ONCE. Do not go back and count them again. What is your answer?

(When I was kid abroad we had an acre of banana 'trees' down the hill from the house - my mum made brilliant banana bread from them... haven't tasted it in years). |

the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae.
The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm.
Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

My Mum's going to email it to me tonight - so I'll post it tomorrow. BTW the best bananas for it are over-ripe ones.... that could be a stumbling point for you |
