An easy way to get one coffee filter out of a stack is to use a pencil eraser. Simply place the eraser firmly against the side of top filter and slide upwards. This should easily separate one coffee filter and save you a great deal of frustration!
I turn the stack inside out, like Irrn567 - never have trouble, especially late at night when I'm trying to set the machine up for morning and all I want to do is get some sleep.

Tip: Separating Coffee Filters (07/02/2009)
To help separate coffee filters, flip a bunch inside out. That loosens them up and are easier to pull apart, especially first thing in the morning!

I don't know why, but the brown coffee filters are much easier to separate than the white ones. Go figure. (10/30/2007)
