Amos Umwhat:Hmm...I have a tendency to expect and prepare for the worst, while hoping for the best. Not sure where I fall out on this.

RBeckom: Puff_Dougie:This one, I must admit is funny. But is it honest?
RBeckom:I by my nature am an optimistic person and wonder just how many people here share my views toward life in general? If I am right there will be three optimist for every pessimistic person who will post not that there will be an accurate figure presented here because most who lean towards pessimism will regard this thread as trivial and not worth their time to answer or will want to hide this fact about themselves which they have forgotten has already been presented through the writings of said individuals for a lengthy period of time.So who is game enough to state the truth about themselves?And yes this is one of my little social experiments, I admit it up front.
Vulchor:I would asdk the same to Bobbo or to others to comment. While we both may be pessismists Bob....is that really pessimism you are referring to or is it the honest realization within yourself that things will go bad in some way in a lot of areas and you understand and accept it as inevitable?
RBeckom:In two hours sixteen minutes as of this writing the count stands as follows: 76 reads: 12 replies, of these twelve, I believe only four. Possibly five. Folks, honesty without comedy is sometimes warranted. This being one of those times. I have read your post for years and already know where most of you stand from this perspective alone. Be honest but most importantly, be sincere in your answer else my experiment is turned to rubbish. I am not delving into your inner personalities here, I am looking for a generalized figure from a set control group. Have fun with it but then please answer with honesty. Thank you.
