Love the writing style of this post. He may be in an introvert but he's a damn good writer!

  > He may be in an introvert but he's a damn good writer! Along with what I would imagine is a sizable chunk of the best writers. Writing is rarely a social activity.

    Actually most good writers ( as in book authors ) are FE-doms (Feeling Extroverted) which makes them extraverted and not introverted. They are good at it because they are naturally good at consciously think and reflect about how they affect other people and how other people affect them, which is good for making believable characters. It still amazes me that people on this board stick to their (hero) introvert/extravert dichotomy instead of actually researching the subject which you would expect engineers and techies to have an inkling to do. Search words, MBTI, Keyser, Jung, Big Five.

      A lot of my engineering friends seem to write off the MBTI as some psychology pseudoscience like astrology. I think there's some truth to it, but it's certainly not a cut and dry science.

        Of course it is not a science, we don't have the technology yet to probable verify it. But Dario Nardi has made some interesting studies with eeg that maps the functions to areas in the brain. It is a theory that many people are finding works and confirms their real life experience, short story if it quacks like a duck and if it looks like a duck. But you are ofcause allowed to continue thinking the earth it flat until you are shown prober proof for something else.
