In court one time, I tried to explain with calculations that since I was coming around a curve one side of my car was going faster than the other - had the officer testified truthfully about where he was pointing the laser (which was pointed to the left bumper when the curve went to the right), he would have had a different result. Pretty good. I'll have to pass that one along to my dad. But it would have to be a pretty wide car to have a significant difference. The expression half empty attempts to describe the person's perception of the same glass. . . . I'm not sure if the expression was intended to also mean that, but it does. Right, that's the usual interpretation -- some people are "half full" types, others are "half empty" types. Other people classifiers: Type A & Type B; cat & dog; right brain & left brain; thinkers & feelers; introverts & extraverts. Others, anyone?
