Re: Myers-Briggs, redux

Well, the 4D link is now dead - and the 20+ year old program I played on my Mac is now not working. But I used to play it daily.

Re: Myers-Briggs, redux

Re: TV obsessionsβ€”come on, admit it!

For All Mankind is well worth watching. Alternate history where Russia won the Space Race. A little late to the show, but hey, now I can binge watch 3 seasons at once!
