Very accurate. I did a similar test years ago and the results are the same. About the glass. It's half full and who cares!

Just like Colin - everything except the glass. My perspective is that it would be neither half empty nor half full - the water is at the halfway point.

Wow. Nailed me - except for the glass. My perspective on half a glass of water is: it's half a glass of water, where's my scotch?
