Detractors, skeptics continue to discredit scribe analysis

As long as handwriting analysis has been accepted by leading psychologists as a valid science and an accurate key to the personality and
psyche, I still find skeptics.
After a recent luncheon where I gave an introductory speech on Handwriting Analysis, a gentleman approached me with a sample of witing: Scribble Scribble!
"Bet you can't figure this one out!" as he handed me what appeared to be nothing more than scribbling.
"Handwriting is a direct projection of mental characteristics," I told him. "In addition, it is an invaluable tool for use in any area where a penetrating knowledge
of human behavior is indispensible."
I told him the mental characteristics of the sample submitted must be that of a child. Astounding creative talent is noted in the abundant rounded strokes. Rythym can be seen in the
graceful line formations.
Restlessness is svident in the smooth interlacing lines.
The writing has exceptional musical talent and is well coordinated physically. At which the gentleman informed me the the sample was that of his six year old son. His son was recently
featured as a child prodigy who excels in the piano!
