I vaguely recall the Soviets or perhaps even the USA using a laser to blind a USA satellite some time about year 1984. I remember reading about a satellite that uses steel - no warhead, just steel - as a space weapon. I recall reading weapons are forbidden in space by treaty, but steel rods...

I test MO using these rules and daily price data from 13 October 1986 to 13 October 2006: 1) Buy when price first crosses the highest price of the prior 50 trading days. 2) Sell when price decreases below the lowest price of the prior 50 trading days. 3) Position size in shares = 5 % of...

The Dow Jones Industrial Average only has to go up 20 % each day for the next five days.

Insurance is for poor people. Rich people reach into their pocket, pull out money and give it to the medical people.

Sometimes I wonder if I am one of those neocon neoconservative guys. I might look up the definition of neocon after I get out of the pool. Cya!

I often wonder what might happen if millions of uninsured people living in the USA need health care but do not have money to pay. I believe health care industry is not stable. I can not predict the future and have no idea when big changes may happen. One timing clue might be changes in the long...

Looks like Corn December 2006 opened limit up a couple sessions ago. I remember about November 2005 nearest corn futures price was less than $ 2 / bushel and decreasing.

Start at birth. Why wait until 22 years of age? I believe the real threat to my security is unexpectable and unpredictable events. Imagine if there is a civil war in the USA? I imagine an accident and losing my legs. I give no consideration to retiring at age 65. I might not be alive at 65...

I compare data files with Microsoft Excel. I use data from the exact same time range, open the files with Microsoft Excel and check for the same number of rows. If the number of rows is different then some file is missing data.
