I know there must be a trap here but I'll play along just the same.
Maybe "Fill in the answer..." was part of the text. Can I vote twice?

The above is not anything to do with the question. I don't think the forum will allow you to vote twice
The only part you have to concentrate on is
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI
FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...

Yup, you can't vote twice. I was the fool who voted 4. Good grief.

Dammit! I counted correctly the first time but not the second or third time and voted wrongly. I've done something similar before and know what to look for...but still got it wrong.  |

I can tell you that only one person has given the correct answer to date.
I would suspect that person has done this puzzle before, hence he/she knows the answer

Another ones got it right. I can't believe that anything so obvious gives so much trouble, knowing what to look for I still got it wrong...perhaps Greeney can explain it  |

Me thinks some of us are dyslectic. I tried the test on my wife (who reads at about twice my speed) and she got the correct answer in seconds.

| Maybe it's the same as trying to proof-read your own writing, a few people can do it fairly well but most of us ignore the details and read what we think is there. |
