I'm not sure if it's a good idea to post this, but I decided to do so.
Below is a link to a free Personality Test that takes about 12 minutes to complete. Normally I would steer clear of these types of tests, but I am stunned by the accuracy of the report on the test I completed. It also helped me understand a little more about the reasons why we react and respond differently to various things e.g. current affairs, news reports, life events etc.
The link is for anyone who might be interested in completing the test. The Take A Free Test tab is at the bottom left of the page:

Apparently I'm a protaganist........ nope, wrong wrong wrong. Though thinking about it I did used to be , so it's interesting my answers were based on the past though they didn't mean to be.
Among others, politicians are listed as protaganists . It's a very 'out there' personality and I'm just not like that anymore.
Protaganists are said to mesmerise listeners....... I've usually thought that glassy eyed look on my listeners was one of boredom.

maybe you have autism too chameleon?
You may well be right. A few people over the years have suggested that may be the case and my wife who knows a bit about the subject thinks its a definate possibility.......,

seems logicians can't spell
I am not in a position to speak for the others that your comment applies to, however, I can for myself.
You are the second person in as many days to comment on spelling.
It is quite clear that you you are unaware that some people suffer from Dyslexia, myself being one of them.
The mental concentration involved when reading, writing or typing can sometimes be exhausting, and all for the sake of trying to get it right, and to satisfy the Spelling Police.
And yes, I don't always get it right !!

That's why they put rubbers on the end of pencils.
I will say that it hasnt stopped me reaching goals.
Some people may assume that if a person has difficulty spelling, they are a dummie, something that I am far from.
When the spelling police appear on forums, things can deteriate quickly.
I have made my postion known.
Dont get me started on OCD.
(If any spelling mistakes are in me reply, I didnt use the spell checker, deliberately)

I could type a very lengthy reply about this (complete with spelling mistakes lol) but will try to be brief.
I agree with you, about people who may not post because of the spelling police, as I have seen this happen plenty of times in the past on forums. I am neither ashamed or embarrassed. I will often laugh about it, trying to work out how something I have written or typed makes no sense what so ever. Other suffers may have major issues around it, as I can well understand, and with empathy.
I have seen where some have been so petty they have criticised another because they neglected to use a capital letter which then resulted in an online slanging match.
I am surprised that the grammar police haven't issued a warrant for my arrest because of the deliberate mistake in my previous post.
