Kestas, so I take it(from the above bashing) that this
guy has ABSOLUTELY no scientifically valid data to
provide to perspective talent evaluators?  I was
wondering, coming from your background, how this kind
of science is treated...as it seems, at least from the
article, that this sort of science is experimental at
best, but not sufficiently proven either way.  Have
there ever been any long-term experiments concerning
brain types and their effect on overall life success? 


Thanks--in advance--for the info, 

Ryan
