How to Get the Most Out of Your Eccentric Programm...
Interesting writing but lots of sweeping generalizations which leaves me with nothing to take away from the article. The word "eccentric" means "unusual" - i.e. not prone to sweeping generalizations.

Yes. This personality type is prone to making sweeping generalizations. I'll put that down as another generalization about him.

That's a bit of a generalization, don't you think? ;-)

I'd even say it is a hasty generalization.

Right, I should have said "not amenable to sweeping generalizations."
