For awhile you were doing pretty good here. Now I see that you are
dumbing yourself down again.

ps - Bassy, I am playing with you because you are taking this thing way
to serious. You really do need to sit back and enjoy life and not go
looking for a fight on every post. The OP comment was a comment made in
passing, it was not meant to be taken as the gospel.

80% is a B, isn't that good?

Thanks for making my point! Come on, you can dumb yourself down even
MORE, can't you?

OK, but 80% is better than 70%.

No, but it was a knee jerk response. Most intelligent people THINK
before they make comments like JimH made. He does so consitently here.
Not long ago, he made a comment about a boating accident saying that
the people must have been drunk rednecks. Neither was the case.

So 35% unemployment is better than 4.5%?

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

So who got the speed right?


Everybody - I think the consensus is that he was going too freakin'
fast.

Yea - and the guy who got the speed wrong was the driver :-)

You will have to wait for the human radar to log back on. My guess is
8:00 or later on Monday...



That boy is easily wound up over nothing.


I could be wrong, but I think the driver fell out of the boat. And that
the boat was new. of course all the warranties expired on impact. I was
just glad no one was killed. and there was one less nut on the lake we
enjoy - for awhile anyway..

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.
Bigger is not necessarily better, even if Paris Hilton says so.
