C2, it's great fun being an arm-chair critic and wise counsel.
If I had to actually write stuff for people to simply adopt in all seriousness without running it through their own critical apparatus, it would be a big project and a lot of the stuff I rant wouldn't see the light of day.
These discussions are ideas and information supplies. A thinking out loud approach. As we all know, many of our thoughts are peculiar things which fail on meeting reality or even a minimal critical review by other people. A second thought puts paid to most of them.
Somehow, this reminds me of the old joke about Einstein and Marilyn Monroe, "Imagine, with your brains and my beauty, how great our offspring would be" to which he replies, "But what if it has my beauty and your brains?" < if the Q bigwigs had taken business advice from you and legal advice from me.>
I'll stick to my job, low paid though it is, of expert ranter from the sidelines. If I received payment, somebody might mistakenly think I had some obligation to get it right. They might take me up on my usual double your money back guarantee. That could be a problem I prefer not to have.
Donations would be welcome.
eom,
Mqurice
PS; Would those who break the rules of this stream by discussing short term price movements, eye-colouring, and other off topic things please maintain the high standards to which we aspire. We have had a pretty good run for a while with only occasional lapses which belong in the Write What You Like stream, or via PM, or the new Buy Range. Price discussions, including those resulting from these garden variety legal decisions, should be be over at Buy Range [there are two streams to choose from there]. |
