>Such "originality" is quite useless. I see it all the time. MW falls into that camp.>

I don't know why I am defending Maurice here. Because he defends himself in more entertaining ways...

I will take Maurice's "Uninformed free-floating original thinking" any day. Part of the reason we hang out here, besides looking for great investing opportunities.

By the way, ice age by 2020 is just his way to make fun of those who were so sure a few decades ago that the world was heading towards an ice age...as sure as some are about global warming now being the result of human activity.

>my startup will make a billion in two years!>

Is there anyone here who does not know about Maurice's love affair with QCOM in the 90s?

That is true. An interesting distinction.

Sea Otter, you have obviously not thought through or understood in the slightest the reason why 2020 reglaciation is on the cards. Simple Denialism isn't thinking. Ignorance is not bliss. You should get real. Don't just deny 2020, give reasons. Simply calling "Blasphemy" is not an argument. Neither is "my leaders tell me and they are really important people." That makes you just a camp follower.

BTW, have you not heard of Qualcomm? Do you not know about iPhones? The idea of encoded Fourier transforms being decoded in handsets started in 1989 in my mind. You probably didn't even hear about it until 1999 and no doubt have still not heard of Fourier. <Such "originality" is quite useless. I see it all the time. MW falls into that camp. > I mentioned Zenbu to you. You apparently can't read. Zenbu is now the biggest and best wifi in New Zealand. Have you ever driven a car in Europe? If so, you might have bought 98 octane petrol. Say "Thanks Mq". My originality turns into reality. When you see the big one [still under wraps], you will be amazed.

Some suckers have apparently made the mistake of thinking you are an intelligent woman and have given you investment funds to destroy. Do tell us about your fund or is it a secret? You are obviously a featherweight singing "I am woman watch me grow"... into 100 kg? youtube.com She sings "If I have to, I can do anything." but that misses the point. It's not "having to do" it that is the fun and source of originality. It's the freedom to think and do which matters. While necessity is the mother of invention, necessity is not where the really good stuff comes from.

Your main failing is lack of curiosity. That's where originality comes from. wimp.com
