This together with a honest understanding of right from wrong - good from evil, is an excellent combination.

Yes, I ask complete strangers on public transportation about books they are reading or newspaper articles. I have made fast friends that way and gotten the strangest looks. I come from a big city, too, but I guess I have always felt that if you do a good job it'll get recognized. It makes me a lousy office worker and a pretty good freelancer (19 years and counting). I think in the long run, knowing yourself and trusting instincts is better than faking it.
