Few people can resist an offer to scientifically &amp;quot;read&amp;quot; their fingerprints. And you get to hold hands.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I just published a blog on how to do this here:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="https://www.element14.com/community/people/dougw/blog/2016/02/05/intimate-science"&gt;Intimate Science&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So have a go at examining your fingerprints and check out the medical studies. With fingerprint recognition coming back in a big way in many cell phones, I can imagine some crafty employer looking for personality characteristics in your fingerprints.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the very least I would expect a bunch of apps to pop up claiming to read your personality and your mother&amp;#39;s history from your fingerprints.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you find this scary, it might indicate what type of fingerprint you have. If you just find this interesting, it might indicate a different type of fingerprint.....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Doug&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=1076&amp;AppID=75&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Share the Love with element14</title><link>https://community.element14.com/members-area/b/blog/posts/share-the-love-with-element14</link><pubDate>Thu, 04 Feb 2016 18:49:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:825e056f-4db0-49ee-91f1-cf498894c679</guid><dc:creator>D_Hersey</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;Runnin&amp;#39; all around my brain:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://nautil.us/issue/33/attraction/love-is-like-cocaine" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank" title="http://nautil.us/issue/33/attraction/love-is-like-cocaine"&gt;When We Say Someone Is Drunk on Love, Is It Chemically True?&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=1076&amp;AppID=75&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Share the Love with element14</title><link>https://community.element14.com/members-area/b/blog/posts/share-the-love-with-element14</link><pubDate>Wed, 03 Feb 2016 22:22:02 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:825e056f-4db0-49ee-91f1-cf498894c679</guid><dc:creator>COMPACT</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;I found a bug!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;See how the dregs of the close sub dialog box remains after a web page refresh!
