Here's the test in Spanish
http://keirsey.com/span2.html

The spanish tests are INTJ. I can see a pattern here...

They [ISTJs] place great importance on honesty and integrity. They are "good citizens" who can be depended on to do the right thing for their families and communities.

AND

ISTJs tend to believe in laws and traditions, and expect the same from others.

Both are not necessary compatible, sometimes do the rigth thing doesn´t imply respect laws and traditions.
(like when GrampaGeek choosed a woman with brains, or, if you like an example from literature, when Antigone barried her brother http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antigone_%28Sophocles%29)

I read the Grannys description too

Yep, seems like a lotta INTJs. With Joe1962 in the INTJ camp, I am thinking that maybe programming is an INTJ kind of activity. I viewed the homepage of a programmer who mentioned she was INTJ; did some important work for IBM.
