An apt description for "SouthAmerica" one of the finest idiots from his continent. Continuously demonstrating that anyone with a keyboard and a mouse can talk without saying much...

I proudly drive an 06 civic w/ 4 cylinders - motor trend car of the year. It gets good mileage, will probably last 250,000 miles, holds its value better than most, is extremely safe, is comfortable, looks good, etc. etc. I don't feel the need to impress others nor worry about "performance."...

Quote from Brandonf: Well, if your in a small town and the jobs are 40 to 50 miles a way, one way, and your only making $5 to $7 an hour, Who in the world wants to drive 50 miles one way for those wages? Either move closer or get a job closer. [/B]

China grows because they depend on selling to others. They need to grow at 10% a year just to quell unrest from the poorer provinces. Think they will keep growing at 10% ad infinitum? Expect some major backlashes from some countries in the future, who are not thrilled that the jobs...

Don't agree. As I have said above, the belief in science is way overrated. It is simply a method of quantifying knowledge, and it needs constant work to overcome its stupendous collection of partial knowledges. Science and religion are orthogonal, period. Our knowledge is rudimentary...

I agree. I have seen traders with a list of over a 100 things they expect to need for success, and they still lose. Some here on ET. If only it were that simple.

Yes. I suggest that you calculations of fuel per passenger are severely flawed. For example: "Fuel accounts for a third of an airline’s operating cost per passenger, and is the second-highest expense next to labor."...

Quote from smilingsynic: ...it is rather easy to refute your notion that I am not a cantaloupe. No cantaloupes can write. I write; Therefore, I am not a cantaloupe. An EAE-2 syllogism. Not that it matters, since logic is not your strength. Tip your head and let the hot sand run to...

My thoughts exactly. I saw the results of enough motorcycle accidents that I will stay in the car, thanks. Especially if truly > 70 miles a day. You are asking to turn your wife into a widow. Will your tombstone say "But gee honey, I saved $$$"

and your P&Ls were posted where???

:D :D :D :D Ever get the feeling that the trad3r is just a walking punch line? He certainly makes for a good straight man...

I think what you mean is, since you only paper trade, you feel no emotions since you don't invest real money.

Plenty of people have martingale/antimartingale, money management and other theories. In addition, there are problems with trading costs as well. Also, one would think that investment banks, hedge funds and other institutions would be able to implement this if it really worked. They...

There are dozens of companies/sites/publications that have already done this. Why are you reinventing the wheel?

Yes. Theorem 1: In true science, the one making the supposition bears the responsibility Theorem 2: Anyone making such a supposition and expecting others take it at face value is no science. How about this: SmilingSync is a cantaloupe. Does anyone care to (try to) refute this...

That is my leaning also. Get your nutrition from foods. The point was, that many supplements underwent extensive scientific testing. Not just the commercial interests. Many university, federal and institutional studies were performed, and science was generally convinced about the many...

That might seem true, but whether the universe was steady state, expanding, or contracting was a mystery until well into the 20th century. And as to conclusions, it is anything but simple. There have been many arguments over the shape of the universe. Many believe different parts fold back...

Wouldn't help much. It just would push the crude trading to other fuels or offshore. The only effect would be to lose revenue to other places.
