I originally MAILed this to Dana thru private e-mail but I decided
that it should "go public" to this newsgroup as well.

How can you say that some person is either A) an extrovert or B) an introvert
or has an A) analytic or B) synthetic mind?  Can you take these judgements
seriously if this decision is made from data gathered solely from one TEST?
There is never such a black/white distinction between people.
People are so FASCINATING and so COMPLEX for many, many, many reasons.
They CHANGE with time, and their "properties" and abilities can never be
made Absolute.  How much can this one little pompous test say about you,
in particular, when you write it?   You are "introverted" in relation to
whom?  Your mother?  Your best friend?  The "average" person?  It will do
more harm than good if people believe what something or someone else
tells THEM about WHO THEY ARE.  You are much more interesting and flexible
than the people who made up the test would have you think!

                        Your fellow USENETTER,
