I'd be careful about making statements about people's perceptions. After all, you get to know them only through *your* perception. Usually it is much more successful to listen carefully to feedback and take it as fact instead of claiming it's the others who do not see reality. I don't have the time to go into more detail but the concept of "reality" is actually quite a complex one and there are various theories around that. I personally find this one pretty convincing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructivist_epistemology The interesting part is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructivist_epistemology#Key_concepts Cheers robert -- remember.guy do |as, often| as.you_can - without end http://blog.rubybestpractices.com/
