Jay I figured the same with that question.
What if a woman wrote the test? Then I can see how the whole details, biology, and ESPECIALLY dictionary contradiction could be turned into, "you know what I meant" and women would, in droves, get the correct answer.

That is precisely it. You have to get the expected answer even if it is not actually correct. It was clear how the author thought the words mapped.
I suspect less than 1% of the fluent English speakers would know the precise meaning of the word twig.
Also please note my peculiarity of using the word speaker here, when mentioning the transducer I try to be careful and use the word loudspeaker.

Then again, many words do not have precise meaning.
Many words differ noticeably between countries, cultures or dictionaries.
Hence "weasel" words - extracted from language and redefined accurately for a specific field.

Based on the human genome project of National Geographic I am 4.9% neanderthal and a large port from your island and Asia yet no african in the last 100,000 years part of .005% of the tested group that did not have ancestors from africa . Thus placing their theory of the origins of mankind in question. Now being American caring on the family tradition of being Barbarian we plunder by the yard. Regards
Well to carry things a bit more, England is a part of Great Britan. It was a country, not is. (If I remember the phrasing correctly.)
That eliminates ruling the world from my career choices, being able to communicate with others may be too difficult.
So I will test my recipe for lemonaide.
5 parts fresh lemon juice
4 parts cane sugar
1 part brown sugar
15 parts cold water that has rested 24 hours
10 parts crushed ice
1 drop vanilla extract
1/8 pinch of salt
Do let me know if any of you try it!

Much like most of English it is in context. Used to represent a branch of a tree to a template programing in php language (computer). There are very few absolutes in English that I have seen so far.😉
That might explain.....I went to the kitchen and made a sandwich mid test...maybe I'm not retarded after all.
Dan.
Nobody but nobody wants tired water...
...especially when you want energized lemonade.
Yet, strangely it is difficult to tell in DBTs, IF the water has or has not been properly rested.
Does this explain? 😀

'Blood of the isles' is a very interesting read if you are interested in population genetics. Basically everyone invaded England at some point! The daughters have an actual family tree that dates back to the Norman conquest on the maternal side. Which is pretty cool. Paternal line my family have traced back to around 1150.
I find looking at family trees interesting. Tracing them is mind numbingly boring.... Injecting fresh unrelated DNA into the family tree is a lot more fun and my focus 🙂
That's very good! I could get back only to about 1450, then the records are all in Latin, which makes it difficult. There are hints the family came over with the Normans in the 11th century, but I don't have a direct paper trail.
How did you manage to get back to the 12th century?
My paternal side looks more like a power pole than a tree back to 1066 . My maternal side has far more diversity including the Asian ,Native American and German ( Neanderthal) and Melungeon . Not much about electronics in this little sojourn however we are not insulting Mensa member and demean their abilities now are we ?
Luck really. A long lost possible relative appeared who had traced their line back and I managed to find the join to my line as researched by my uncles. It's rare surname which is good, but easy to misspell which is bad if most of the ancestors are illiterate.
What I would like to try and prove/rule out is that the family name came from the small village of shurdington near cheltenham. Shurd to Shurv seems very plausible.
Marilène l'érudite is a highly attractive woman, I'd shag her instantly.
As for male examples in the real world, Paul Allen is quite a brilliant guy imo, also has vision when it comes to boats (close to none in that shopping tier do).
I spoke to Bil Gates when he did his global university speech tour in the early '90s, more impressed by his belligerence (takes one to whiff one).
The bloke in the IT business which I've experienced as most impressive on a cranial level is Mr. James Clark (Seascape had an office on site in Vollenhove in the late '90s, when Hyperion was built at the Huisman yard).
All things relative, I've talked with Mike Sinyard of Specialised (bikes) a couple of times, very stimulating/inspirational individual.

A real DIY'r would do a test. Rest a glass of tap water for 24 hours and compare that to a freshly drawn glass!
