Yup, and imagine -- if we can't even process the word "of", then what other stuff is our mind playing tricks on us with? A lot... this became very apparent to me after I started journaling my trades. Before journals, I would always remember the event differently than how it actually happened. And this wasn't "selective remembering", I would have sworn I was remembering it accurately. And was wrong.

OK, this is my last try.

One because the actual question is talking about this sentence.
Then it would be none, not one, if the question is, How many letters f contains "This sentance?"

Thanks Wiki

On the contrary, brain is so powerful, but is biased toward experience. That is why majority can not think out of the box.

You can read the following at whatever your normal reading speed is. Try it.
