Funny you should say that.  Twenty-some years ago I took one -- two,
actually -- of those tests that's supposed to help you decide on the type
of work you'd like to do.  The man who administered the test came within an
ace of flat-out calling me a liar, and his disbelief stuck out like bumps
all over him.  And he gave these tests every day.  What had him all in a
swivet was that I showed 98th-percentile affinity with artists and
musicians, 95th-percentile affinity with scientists and doctors
(particularly female doctors, curiously enough) and engineers.  And
10th-percentile or lower with practically everyone else...I think it was
2nd-percentile for accountants and the like.

Now I *am* going to be sick.  Go away.
