roberson3 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Below is a email that was sent to me. I thought it would be cool to post it here and see what everyones answers were. After you finish doing the "test" post your answers. Don't just scroll to the bottom. What is the fun in that? At the end of this message, you are asked a question. Answer it immediately. Don't stop and think about it. Just say the first thing that pops into your mind. This is a fun 'test'... AND kind of spooky at the same time! Give it a try, then e-mail it around (including back to me) and you'll see how many people you know fall into the same percentage as you. Be sure to put in the subject line if you are among the 98% or the 2%. You'll understand what that means after you finish taking the 'test.' Now - just follow the instructions as quickly as possible. Do not go to the next calculation before you have finished the previous one.. You do not ever need to write or remember the answers, just do it using your mind. You'll be surprised. Start: How much is: 15 + 6 21 3 + 56 59 89 + 2 91 12 + 53 65 75 + 26 101 25 + 52 77 63 + 32 95 I know! Calculations are hard work, but it's! nearly over.. Come on, one more! ... 123 + 5 128 QUICK! THINK ABOUT A COLOR AND A TOOL! Scroll further to the bottom.... A bit more... You just thought about a red hammer , didn't you? If this is not your answer, you are among 2% of people who have a different, if not abnormal, mind. 98% of the folks would answer a red hammer while doing this exercise. If you do not believe this, pass it around and you'll see. Be sure to put in the subject line if you are among the 98% or the 2% and send to everyone, including the person that sent it to you Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mestalights 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Green Hammer here????? It is a Christmas color too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
amcdonald307 10 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 This may work better orally rather than reading it. I wrote RED HAMMER on a slip of paper, folded it up and handed it to my wife, then read the questions to her. After she said red hammer, I let her unfold the paper and read it. I left her baffled how I did it, promising her I would use my powers only for betterment of mankind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
