I second the motion. Extruding what could be stated in a few paragraphs, into an outrageously long thread, which is going nowhere faster than the speed of creation is just bad form. Merry christmas.:)

Wow, i thought i had trouble reading. Z managed to incorrectly interpret a single word. Never mind z, i was going to let you in on it, just in time for christmas too, but it appears you are unworthy. Too bad.

Yes. Qoute from z10 "Or are you telling us that your comments are not opinion but fact?"

I have to disagree, roberk-thats an interesting qoute from atkins, but i doubt very much its the approach of most in the feild. Science is about finding answers, to previously, presumably unknowable questions. Religion teaches specifically, those answers are "gods" work, not meant to be known...

This is good stuff . When Z uses a word, a sentence, it means precisely what he wants it to mean, nothing more, nothing less............. "Attempting to reason with Z10 re a subject about which he has already made up his mind is fruitless. I just use him to practice controlling a...

Heating oil, and gold looking big right now on the upside. Probably the plays of the day, dont like setting stops into massive swinging markets generally. Maybe calls on those,perhaps march or so for expiry. Could be huge duds, but thats always true. Thought for the day: Who invented...

Im not convinced it (magckik??) can , no. Plain old propaganda works so well, after all, who would need it? Seriously? As for making money, which i presume is the topic, well who knows. The subconscious on the other hand, which is far from a nebulous concept, ive established can do pretty...

Surely all you have is the respective value of a "move ", as a measure of the total inherent value of the thing being measured, compared to another. All markets will display the same behaviour as another, at some point in time. Did you mean, like the concept of "currencies trending well"...

I knew someone, who intended to prove immortality. But he concluded, it would take to long. Am i STILL the only person who was taught this idea at school? :)

Im almost beginning to think, my call of 1118 might have been just a little on the lowside. :cool:

Phew, i thought they were going to tax fairness there for a second. :eek:

"Nothing at all was lost....from my perspective. Only potential gain may have been missed. If you didn't win something previously not revealed to you, it would not be because you were beaten.....it would only be because you were playing a game....I was not." Um, Roberk used the word...

Hey, just looking for an explanation of the "triumphalism" of scientific method. It aint perfect, but only religious types use bugles or trumpets in the symbolism of their collective ideology. All science is dogmatic, btw. Everything is whats currently known, until further stuff shows up...

"Where there is any programming so strong, so consistent, so everpresent, there is a program behind it....this is not a random thing at all.' Your posts? :D

" But I deplore the triumphalism of scientific materialism, and as it stands the Intelligent Design people are the only ones with the courage, and knowledge to oppose this ideaology." Maybe the triumphalism of scientific materialism needs some description. I was taught "intelligent design"...

Roberk, are you serious? Forbidding alternative, much less scientific theories being taught is precisely what religion has been doing for centuries and centuries, and were only dragged kicking and screaming against their will to allow anything but biblical interpretations into schools in the...

"I challenge any biological scientist to find one single biological species that lives forever. One would think that with all this random chance stuff (think monkeys banging out Shakespeare) that at least one species would have evolved to the point where it would no longer die of natural...

Thats fantastic. Does this still apply though, from the "What bugs you" thread. "What annoys me the most is that I could list 10,000 things, and still not be done. Everything fucking annoys me." I realise this is a work in progress, but have you noticed a difference in general...

Live under a bridge for a few days. Or weeks. Youll never be the same again. Not sure if thats good-but will inspire motivation of some sort. RiskArb, how serious are you about the coffee?

Vhehn, randi is a fraud , for mine. Hes an illusionist allright. The prize has been won, many times, just not by his illusory standards. I looked into it once, at the time he didnt even have the liquid mill to back it up. Just a cheap , lousy promotional stunt. Further, i did see a...
