>>To me "fair" is that we both know the rules going in and realize that an existing error rate could influence the outcome in either direction.<<

i agree. unfortunately, fl law apparently doesn't allow that version of "fair."

>>Unfair is one side using a bias to gain an advantage.<<

wanna double down on that wooden nickel bet? i bet that the demos get enough votes to win and i bet the ms harris is available on sunday. ;-)

>>If we played poker with a deck that was missing some cards, that would be OK if neither of us knew what was missing - even if it influenced the outcome. It would be totally unfair if I knew and you didn't. <<

not sure this is an apples to apples compatrison... but i don't think i want to play cards with you ;-) i was watching espn's the 50 greatest athletes... michael jordan was playing a north carolina team mate's mother in cards... he caught micheal cheating to win... ;-)
