3096 Neuro Test

Meaghan: The essence of dismay - editing the text of a Ruth Bader Ginsburg presentation, transcribed by a law student, and running across several references to "Roby Wade."

-------------------------------------------------

There's a commercial for the Kindle wherein the young woman says it was $139, "I paid more than that for these sunglasses".

Now, why would anyone want to take purchasing advice from someone who pays more than $139 for sunglasses?

--------------------------------

The following is an interesting test. I really didn't think I'd be able to find the letters, but I did immediately with no effort, as if they were in a different color or something. (Not sure what that has to do with Alzheimer's, though.) And the spelling paragraph amazed me, because I have so much difficulty with LOLspeak that I never even attempt to read the comments on the LOLcats website (I Can Has Cheezburger). I read this one out loud with no hesitation or having to "figure it out".

Test 1:

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

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO

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

9999999999999999999 9999999999999999 999999999999

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

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMNMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMM

This is NOT a joke. If you were able to pass these 3 tests, you can
cancel your annual visit to your neurologist. Your brain is great and
you're far from having a close relationship with Alzheimer.

Congratulations!

Test 2:
