[QUOTE="Sadrik, post: 6107641, member: 14506"] There is a really good book by Malcolm Gladwell entitled Blink. In this book he argues that there are two ways we draw conclusions about things. One in which we use our analytical mind and another we use our unconscious mind. Our unconscious mind for example allows us to get out of the way of a truck as it barrels at us. We don't have to consciously weigh the costs and benefits of the situation. We simply get out of the way. He argues that this unconscious reasoning is fast and can both be better than the more measured approach and can be worse. Training for years of art appreciation for instance can give you a better hunch about the quality of a piece of art than a scientist who simply measures the components of the piece. I like the concept of WIS representing this unconscious reasoning, and the rational mind which can be just as good if not better when time permits being represented by INT. Switch the skills around and saves around to reflect this new understanding of these concepts and I think you have something. [/QUOTE]
