Count every ' F ' in the following text:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.

Why? The mind cannot process the word 'of' at first glance as if you don't need them there to understand the sentence.
Have you ever known yourself to simply miss 'of' or 'the' where you shouldn't in posts simply because you thought you had put it in? I do sometimes.
