you know, i'm beginning to really appreciate khim's post the other day where he mentioned the twitterbrain generation. are you seriously this challenged or just trolling around? do you understand that it wasn't *my* hypothetical situation that assumed perfect fixes but raven667's (as only that way can he/she arrive at his/her numbers). do you understand that i *intentionally* annotated my hypothetical situation with bracketed expressions exactly because i wanted to highlight that other real life situations may very well end up producing opposite numbers? IOW, your argument is not with me but i guess your brittle ego is still suffering from past losses and you thought it'd be a good time to take revenge. maybe next time? :)
