    Is it only a dream that there'll be no more turning away?

    Best so far 0.172. Right before this, I got 0.203 four times in a row...

    Another top tip; Click 'start', then click and hold 'stop'. Release when
    screen changes.

    You know, looking over your shoulder to see if it's safe to overtake.
    I guess this **woosh** is for you.

    I think there was a TV program where they got Schumacher to do this to
    demonstrate how quick his reactions are compared to us lesser mortals.

    I remember doing this at school and laughing at the 'slow' kids who
    completely failed to catch the ruler at all, even after repeated
    attempts. IIRC I was about average - but trying it again aged 20(ish)
    after 3 years of driving competitively and thousands of hours playing
    computer games (such as they were then) I was significantly quicker
    than most of the others.

    Can you learn faster responses?

    It may be that with greater experience you are picking up on subtle
    clues and able to anticipate better. There is a lower limit to the
    reaction time defined by the time it takes the signals to get from eye
    to brain to hand.

    Reinforcing their self image. I think that a significant proportion
    would be inclined to supply the result they wish they'd obtained/believe
    they should have obtained. You'd also get the awkward squad putting in
    stupid results.

    How about an anonymous survey?
