Gigi,the Brian Greene interview is in the latest issue (6) of John
Fudjack's online journal The Enneagram and the MBTI... issue 7 seems late
in showing up so it could show up any second but you can get to previous
issues using a link to the "archives". Issue 6 also has an email
conversation between me and a management consultant who is on the
editorial board for the Journal of Psychological Type. Issue 5 has my
paper on personality circumplexes... Issue 5 also has an interview with
Riso and Hudson and Isssue 4 has an interview with Katherine Myers. How
an obscure electrical engineer like myself ended up next to famous names
like these was a rather wierd synchronistic thing. Synchronistic with the
discussion of twins, my journey into Enneagrammish models started after
the birth of my joined twin daughters who lived for 46 minutes... our
girls seem to give "gifts" tailored to members of our family and I truly
believe this was one for me... I ran into roadblocks alot but I always
felt confident a door would open just when it was needed and it always
did... the doors even kept opening after publication... John Fudjack did
a paper mentioning the Buddhist Wheel of Life, I found a paper on
quaternionic algebra (which is actually related to my real job), a search
using terms from the algebra paper got me to Tony Smith's website...
John Fudjack interviews Brian Greene... oh I found a certain Enneagram
bulletin board too!... various relationships between my work and Tony
Smith's work just kept popping into my head over time... I think I've
gone as far as I can go with this stuff now but there's been several times
I've thought that as a possibility, my most recent addition (the
Higgs scalar in physics) was only done a couple weeks ago... John

The idea of random womb events affecting things is an idea I heard talking
to doctors about my twin girls and I've seen twin studies in major
personality journals like the Journal of Personality mention the
possibility... the term congenital means caused either by genes or by
events in the womb... John
