This is such an interesting thing to me because the whole time I thought I was different from people on this. But I only thought that I was different because I'm the one making the changes to go their environment. Yet if someone changed to my environment, I could see this change happen.

Accommodation is a great deal in a contemporary diverse society and it evolves from a rational personality similar to Howie Giles.
