yes, this is a good analysis of my (childhood and beyond) nature...  
  though I'm not sure "reveal less" is my signature here?   More likely 
"hiding in plain sight"...

I like your use of the term "cognitive dominance".   It was very 
unequivocal albeit non-coerced.  Made it easy for me to submit to 
institutional (LANL) life even though I sandwiched those 27 years on 
either side with a decade or more of entrepreneurial activity. While it 
*was* chafing I came to it with good callouses.
