    I was below average in the face test. Only 49, and average was 52.49.

    “69 out of what, eh?”

    All I can say Kevin is, the “what” extends to at least 71.

    As for “what it’s leading up to” I’m kinda murky on that too. Except to say there’s a battery of tests and you’ve been assigned a test number matching the particulars of a given address – one might receive a few questions and “some” feedback.

    There’s an additional facial recognition test – has to do with ‘famous faces’ apparently I’m not extensively familiar with Pop Culture.
