Yeah, but I got an 80% on the test.
For awhile you were doing pretty good here. Now I see that you are
dumbing yourself down again.

80% is a B, isn't that good?
Thanks for making my point! Come on, you can dumb yourself down even

So 35% unemployment is better than 4.5%?



Always, 35 is better than 4. See how easy this is.

Where'd he go?

Anyway, your lesson on percents from wikipedia was a knee jerk reaction. It
didn't prove that 80% was better than 70%, it just said it was bigger.
