    Well stated on the crock o' sh!t&...

    on indivisible:
    You make an interesting point, which makes me
    think about my "work persona" as compared to my
    private persona.

    While I express only an easy almost laid-back
    friendliness at work, and limit who I showmyself
    to be, to just those portions of my background
    directly applicable to work; I also can draw on other
    knowledge and skills at will. (Like showing only one
    facet of a gemstone, which behaves one way in the
    specific light, but showing no other.)

    So, when taking a test, I probably show only what
    I feel that day or what I anticipate for that test...
    If I don't filter, I will never finish the test as it
    truly won't have appropriate answers on it, as
    David observed.

    The power of selective and dependent filtering
    would make such tests that much more off-target.

    thanks--mel
