Reply #15: My motive? You want a motive? Um.... ok

[TruthIsAll]

"in any event, if you felt the need to debunk the outrageous examples i gave, that would seem to show an underlying insecurity on your part about the validity of your methods. just to be clear, i find your statistical correlations to be highly entertaining and encourage you to continue - but i'm just a bit confused as to your motive - are you here to entertain, or do you actually take yourself seriously?"


What a condescending statement! Do I take myself seriously? Yes. What is my motive? To enlighten, educate and entertain. Just like I am by those wonderful posters at DU who sit down, get to work and produce.

My only feelings of insecurity are for my country when I see those millions like yourself who have not an iota of scientific inquisitiveness, or sense of history, yet are always at the quick to ridicule those who do.

I draw upon many years of analytical, model building and programming experience; not to mention 2 masters degrees in applied mathematics which provided me with a reverence for the power of mathematical analysis in solving all kinds of problems.

I bet you have never taken a single course in Probability. Correct me if I am wrong.
