This is a left brain – right brain conflict. The right brain wants to say the color while your left brain insisits on saying the word.

This is spooky – follow the directions

• Run the attached program Spooky – .EXE 22kb
  You may have to click run from current location, then OK. (Rest assured it’s virus free. I tried it out myself.)
• Place your hand on your desk, palm down.
• Stare at the center of the image for 20 seconds, and really concentrate.
• After the 20 seconds of intense concentration, look down at the back of your hand.

A quick test of intelligence

Read this sentence:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.

Now count the F’s in that sentence. Count before scrolling down.

ANSWER:

• A person of average intelligence finds three of them.
• If you spotted four, you’re above average.
• If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody.
• If you caught six, you are a genius

There is no catch. Many people forget the “of”s’. The human brain tends to see them as V’s and not F’s. Pretty weird, huh?

The Revolving Circles Illusion. The two circles seem to move when the viewer’s head is moving forwards and backwards while looking at the black dot.
