If anyone is interested, the implicit bias test I mentioned in my last post is available here. http://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html

You'll be asked a bunch of nosy questions about yourself. I recommend declining to answer ALL of them. Not only are they none of Harvard's business - but despite my son's protestations to the contrary, I think they could be used to assess you. If you tell it you're white, for instance, it may automatically nudge you more into the "biased against blacks" category than it otherwise would.

So decline to answer. The test doesn't need to know those things. I'm sure Harvard just wants them so it can write a paper on how awful white people are.

I hope he's doing okay, but I don't have his e-mail and haven't had a conversation with him in years.

There's a good chance that I'll be on far less often beginning in Spring, 2018. It won't mean that I'm dead but that I'm in a new stage of my life that will have me very busy with things that truly matter. That's a good thing, right? Hopefully it's the same for ktc.

Digressing a bit, my son had me take an on-line test (by Harvard) this weekend designed to assess a person's "implicit biases." At the end he said, "Okay, dad. You aren't a bigot. You don't really like anybody."

Yup. I coulda told him that without taking the test. I think being fairly isolated in the wilderness will suit me just fine.
