Anyone here have Alzheimer's?
« on: September 25, 2012, 01:55:50 PM »
My mother had it and I'm hoping I don't get it.

Subject:Interesting Mind Test (read all the way to the bottom)


1- Find the C below...do not use any cursor help.


OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


2 - If you already found the C, now find the 6 below.


99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
69999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999


3 - Now find the N below. It's a little more difficult.


MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM


This is NOT a joke. If you were able to pass these three tests,

you can cancel your annual visit to your neurologist. Your

brain is great and you're far from having a close relationship

with Mr Alzheimer.

I found them all but you're right - the N is a bit harder - I first tried looking for a line that was a little narrower than the others

There is a 5th dimension,beyond that which is known to man.It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity,between science& superstition,& it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge.This is the dimension of imagination.It is an area which we call PCLINUXOS!

Just three questions;

What is a C?

What is a 6?

What is an N?

It took a while on the first one because I was looking for a "C".

On the other two I found them quickly because I just scanned for an anomaly and when I got to the one with "N", it just popped out instantly.

This reminds me that I was going to respond to the post on cancer and forgot to do it.

I found them all. I must admit I had to read the instructions three times. I continually forgot what I was looking for.  :-[ ;D  ADD perhaps?
