hurumph.  This shit's been around for years.  I remember taking personality tests like 
these when I was a child.  Once again, the realm of social science has triumphed in 
making the patently obvious seem complex and derived.  Different people's brains work 
differently at a fundamental level?  Boy howdy, I never would have figured that one 
out without a research insitutition to tell me!

"
BTI intends only for the positive application of this information and desires readers 
to grasp its essence-that each person possesses an inborn design, one of 16 individual 
Brain Types, which predisposes him or her to specific mental and physical traits.
"

1 of 16?!  Gee whiz, glad that some group of Ph.D's were able to funnel all of 
humanity into 16 distinct subgroups.  Ah screw it, let's bring back phrenology and 
eugenics while we're at it, and see how many people we can shove into little 
categories.

Seriously:  This type of categorization serves no purpose whatsoever except to erect 
divisions amongst humanity.  Do not be fooled.  Also, if you want to understand 
yourself better, take a trip to the mountains and contemplate your life with respect 
to the cosmos--identifying with some group or category tells you ZERO about who you 
really are as a unique individual.


fed up with BS,
