Back in the day, when I still lived at home with my mom, she handed me this article that she thought I'd like. It was
about this guy who had recently written a book about modern day eccentrics. He figured we knew a lot about eccentrics of days
gone by, but less about ones that lived in today's society. Included in the article was a list of 15 common characteristics
of eccentrics that he had compiled. The way it worked was, if you read the list and said, 'Yes, that describes me pretty accurately,'
to 10 of the characteristics, chances were good that you just might be an eccentric. Well, to make a long story short ("too
late!"), I said, 'Yes, that describes me pretty accurately,' to 14 of the 15 on the list! I'd say that makes me a pretty good
candidate for eccentricity. What do you think?
By the way, if you happen to know this guy's name, the name of the book, or just happen to know anything about this topic,
please let me know. Unfortunately, I forgot the guy's name and the title of the book. I think one of the random bits of information
that I've picked up in the intervening years has usurped its space in my head. Thanks!

This is fun! I ran across it from a friend's livejournal entry. I just love the fact that there's little
chance of me *not* going to hell. *smiles* Fun, fun, fun! Feel free to take the test and then post your results in my guest
book. It'd be great to find out who's going to be where. *evil grins*
The Dante's Inferno Test has banished me
to the Sixth Level of Hell - The City of Dis!
Here is how I matched up against all the levels:
