It has been pointed out to me that I may have underestimated the impact of some of Lynn Viehl's hypotheticals in yesterday's Blink . Although the statement she posted is indeed a factual description of her income, the column surrounding it has several big "if"s in the middle that I glossed over on first read. First, she's confused about what qualifies someone for food stamps. Federal poverty...

It is worth noting that we still do not know for certain that the CRU leak is all genuine and unaltered. However, it does seem that 60MB of mainly text files would take a significant amount of time to fake. Further, there are no "we know that AGW is fake but we shall propagate it anyway, aaahahahahaa haha haha!" type emails, so any alterations have been done very subtly. Further, much of...

In general, perfectionism is never possible because it is in your mind and your mind keeps changing its definition of perfection. We can only care about our work and to do our best. My feeling, in technical analysis, a "perfect set up" is the most suitable method for an individual who gets maximum number of wins following that particular method. The same method need be a "perfect one"...

When a person say perfection cannot be achieved, it should be heard and understood as "Atleast I could not achieve it".
