And now, thanks to computers, people can make mistakes far more efficiently than before. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--><br>

But in 9th grade civics, we did a stock market game. Thinking about world events and reading the newspaper, I chose stocks based on my own sense. All of then but one went up throughout the game.

Actually coolsteve I was making a reference to Darren Aronofsky's brilliant film "Pi", where a mathematical genius believes "everything can be understood in terms of numbers" and looks for patterns in seemingly random systems like the stock market and pi. I highly recommend it.
