My last post of the day, all 3 about this interesting movie which I would love 
to have both for the psych testing course but also for the history and systems 
course. TCM.com says that it is showing it tonight Sun, Feb 21, 2010 at 11:01 
AM EST which according to my TIVO puts it in the middle of North by Northwest, 
but maybe it is being shown in the downtime after that film and before the 
next. Might be worth recording. In any case, North by Northwest is a good film, 
so it wouldn't be a total waste of recording resources to try to get it.

That scene must have happened before I came in.  There were
three candidates who were being given various tests but I only
saw the test where there was a pool of water with a square in
the middle and the testee was given two wooden board to reach
it but neither long enough to reach the square.  Only one figured
out how to use them to form a diagonal to the square.  Of course, 
that was the one that was put into management while the other two
were put into more menial positions.

I hope we've come long since that type of testing. :-)
