Intro post thingie
Hi, I'm Stephen Booth. I'm an Oracle DBA working in the public sector in the UK.
I did the ANSIR test and got:
I do have problems with communication, partially due to having a congenital disability, Dyspraxia. this affects communication in two ways. For one it messes with co-ordination so my handwriting is pretty much unreadable by anyone else so, as I am 34 so come from a generation that predates the widespread use of computers in schools, no one could ever read what I wrote and correct my spelling and grammar. Another effect is that it makes it harder for people who have it to handle non-literal concepts (e.g. shades of meaning, inference, metaphor &c) hence if someone with dyspraxia uses a word they're probably using it in it's precise definition. Both the physical and cognitive effects fade with age.
