    U.S. Consumers Spent 3.5% Less on Holiday Shopping

    CQG Custom Studies

    Hmmm, I've considered that option to lighten this work-load since I'm a hashing retard but was afraid it might be hit or miss. Has your experience been favorable, if at all?

    I think ultimately we all have the same goal here and in any arena be it math,science,sports,music, art etc you have steadfast proponents of various methods. At times, it seems, with a bit of intensity. Why, because for them it works, or maybe more to the point because it didn't. I think...
