It would seem you do something in common with what he says.<BR/><BR/>And finally, this test is a toy, potentially a strong toy, but a toy and non-scientific one at best.<BR/><BR/>Jameel and I are working on a more serious one, with better questions, scoring, and analysis, but we are still limited to the available tool.JoeSettlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01232647820807408898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15423117.post-1135681610545203172005-12-27T13:06:00.000+02:002005-12-27T13:06:00.000+02:00Joe- I came out as Feiglin-Moledet.

Second time, I changed just two answers and said I should support Shinui (due to my religious hatred - also really wrong). I think this test is a good idea, but your agenda and political leanings don't allow for a fair result. Nice attempt though.Harryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12305713258990496873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15423117.post-1135336512060642602005-12-23T13:15:00.000+02:002005-12-23T13:15:00.000+02:00I got NRP.
