Yeah I read that post and was of course blown away by Roissy and his ability to hit it dead on.

He doesn’t always put things in the most delicate way, but I think that style can be a useful corrective to the saccharine illusions fed to us by society’s institutions.

You should drop him a line - get him to use his gift certificate to try a ToGo version of Amoo, or something. I bet he is calibrated enough to notice pretty quickly that pheros work, and would be fascinating to see somebody like that reporting on their experiences.

RE: Roissy

Check out the Kiersy reference [www.keirsey.com/handler.aspx?s=keirsey&f=fourtemps&tab=1&c=overview](http://www.keirsey.com/handler.aspx?s=keirsey&f=fourtemps&tab=1&c=overview) From Marlboro Man. A good shorthand for the first meeting. Don’t try to make stratigic decisions with it. A manager I worked for made me a department supervisor based on a Briggs test. Bad idea. Executive managment felt immeadiatly threatened by the idealist/rational and when my people were mistreated the guardian got pretty fierce. What the hell, gettin’ your ass kicked once in awhile builds character. I think I’ve got enough now, thank you very much.

Inscrutable impassivity? That sounds painful.

Enjoyable read, as always.
