I got about two-thirds of the way through that. I may come back and finish. The things is, it doesn't make sense to me and it gives me more questions than answers. In some of the comparisons he makes, I resemble the phlegmatic more than the other three. In some, I resemble the sanguine. In those cases, I sound nothing like the descriptions he gives of the melancholic and choleric temperaments. Yet he sounds fairly categorical at times, and then he says "so you can see how much we can learn", but he's clarified nothing for me. You're convinced this man was directly plugged into the Akashic Records, right? So, if I say I don't dig it, you'll just think even less of me, automatically. But I have blue eyes and and thousand other things that don't add up according to his scheme. Maybe I'm just different, or maybe Steiner is full of sh!t, or maybe I need to finish the article, or maybe there's more to it... I dunno, but it's pretty unconvincing for me at this point. Which is disappointing because I'm interested in Steiner and I want to like him.
