This article reminds me of one of my favorite "quick filter" stories:
I had a female friend who would ask every guy she met two questions:
1. Do you have a passport?
2. Do you have a library card?
If the answer to #1 was 'No', then that meant that they had never left the country.
If the answer to #2 was 'No', odds were that they didn't LOVE to read. (This story is from the pre-ereader days)
I've always been fascinated by questions like these that can quickly allow you to parse/grok/filter people with a high degree of success and minimal false positives.
