Thanks for pointing that out. I remember back in the day, when Bob Z. first arrived. He cought some flames for referring to himself in the 3rd person. At least it wasn't the 3rd angle.
Anyhow, I don't know if I'd qualify as Obviousman. My college roommate used to call me Captain Oblivion for my lack of observancy. I claimed that I didn't have time to waste noticing every trivial little thing going on around me. He didn't buy it.
I suspect he knows it and was making a rather dry humor comment. I caught it, enjoyed, and had quite a chuckle with his astute observation. He could qualify to be Obviousman! :-)

Very similar to this one
Are you part of the 98%? This is for the Psychology majors...
Don't need pen or paper. Just answer as you go. Free will or synaptic wiring? You be the judge. Check out the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow. There's no trick or surprise. Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can! Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until you've done each of them ... really.
Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something)......... What is:
1+52+4
3+34+2
5+1Now repeat saying the number 6 to yourself as fast as you can for 15 seconds. Then scroll down.
QUICK!!! THINK OF A VEGETABLE! !
Then scroll down.
You're thinking of a carrot, right?
If not, you're among the 2% of the population whose minds are different enough to think of something else. 98% of people will answer with carrot when given this exercise. Freaky, huh?
Send this web page to all your friends so they can see if they are part of the 98% or among the 2% of the population.
Good lord, I'm "normal" again!
On the other hand, if the people who responded to this thread are representative of the whole group who tried it out, we're not at anywhere near 98% on the tool question, more like 10%.

You must have some really large machinists if they think Bandsaws, Bridgeports and Lathes are handtools. Were they all NFL linebackers? :)
