Personality Type
Okay, for those curious, I am of the rare (less than 2% of people) personality type: INFJ Confirmed now by two entirely different personality-type sorters. Here are two web pages that describe me. Now, I'm technically "moderate" in all of these areas, so as you read these realized that I "lean toward" being the person described, but I am not fully described by it.
INFJ type description by D.Keirsey
INFJ type description by J. Butt and M.M. Heiss
Here's an uncanny quote from the second of these two pages: "INFJs are generally well-suited to the "inspirational" professions such as teaching (especially in higher education) and religious leadership" um... okay. Seems pretty much on target.
Fascinating stuff. Do you know your type? Here is a free test that you can take... post your results in the comments, if you don't mind...

I'm Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, and Judging. But I don't know how useful these tests really are.

I'm an INFJ, if you are and a guy (I am), you are VERY sensitive (much more than most, anyway). If you are not, then you may actually be an INTJ. I know that I am almost an INTJ, and almost share a duality in thinking and feeling. Anyway, this INFJ personality is the same as Ghandi and Mother Teresa. We're cool, indivialistic, and probably the most imaginitive and sensitive types people. Also, we are supposed to have the highest percentage of "Psychics," or at least persons so sensitive to their environments that they can appear psychic. This is especiall cool since we're the smallest percentage.... Now, dosen't that make you feel good?
