This has been a thread of great interest to me. I took the
"test" almost 10 years ago and was completely taken by it and
it's purpose (perhaps because I was studying C.G.Jung at the
time). I'm still surprised that I hadn't considered the possi-
bility of "clustering" before this.

That is exactly how I was introduced to it. The training com-
pany I worked for was trying to find ways to get the instructors
and staff to be more considerate of each other.

That is actually interesting -- maybe in a couple of ways. In
the general population I would think that women *tend* to be the
i(N)tuitives while the men *tend* to be (S)ensing which is the
case here. But, if one goes by the "common wisdom" (or maybe old
wives tales) that opposites "attract" while alikes "repel" ...
well, I guess I have to ask (please note my tongue is firmly
planted in my cheek :-) ): is the house still standing?
With two (I)ntroverts, (possibly) (F)eeling, (J)udgers in the
house, I might think it could provide some interesting interac-
tions. ;-)

:-)
So, what other things do you see that you have in common with
Quakers?
:-)
Thanks for the reply to my note, Camilla. As, I said, this
has been interesting. Take care ...
