You want the proof. "Don't Believe the Hype Around 'Emotional Intelligence'" What if I said it can be used to manipulate behavior? That sounds a bit different, doesn’t it? entrepreneur.com

Hey wait a minute BS. Both you and ElM are wrong. There's no reason to "share" and no need for a ponzi scheme. Voluntary exchange of value is the way things go well. Importing hordes of moochers and looters does not improve the lives of the average local yokels. China got it partly right = produce things by the megaton at a lower price than fat lazy Americans could do. Americans got it right = pay poor Chinese to supply Made in China for a fraction of what Americans would charge them. Mqurice

You are NOT THAT SMART. I feel there is a chance that El Mat is a genius or at least deeply insightful at times. I've thought some more about his previous comment: You know the man had a life and then that life disappeared and [this] had [a] deep impact [on] his mind. Usually people who lose their life style blame someone for that. I always try to come up with a working theory for people, and El Mat hit on a major point that I did not initially appreciate. If Maurice is really blaming people for the loss of whatever life he had at BP, then maybe we could explain his distaste for well-educated women with power because he lost his previous position at BP to one. I get the sense that he doesn't have a relevant college degree and he was replaced by a much more competent women. For a racist that would be galling even if she wasn't a minority. I'm just spitballing so there could be lots of variations. I realize this is a "just-so" story but I'm going to stick with it until I get some counter-evidence. I am not that smart either !!! FWIW, I think you are plenty smart. Sometimes I reach back 10 years to read your old posts.
