Dude, that's defamatory; I don't know about Bruce, but I did just what you asked, in good faith. If you think that "for you here every day" is an obvious reference to the internet, good-o. It's not obvious to me. I'm here almost every day, Sylvia is here almost every day, Coach is here almost every day. To me, "for you here every day" is *obviously* a reference to my question, Is Coach really Sylvia? What your test has demonstrated is that Herc, Wolfy and Bruce think differently. That's because at least two of us are different people (I can't vouch for Bruce not being you). It's as simple as that: different people, when asked to associate unrelated texts, will make different associations. That's because the texts are unrelated - there is no correct association. Even if you had a paranormal ability, this test could not possibly demonstrate it, unless you're claiming the ability of Jedi-style mind control - that you could make Bruce and I choose the same answers as you - in which case, you've failed.
