So, since I've been statistical modeling work in the
financial markets for the last fifteen+ years, should
I expect to make advances in cancer research in
60 to 100 hours? If I don't make progress that quickly,
would your friend think "abject dispair [sic] about my failure"
to be an appropriate psychological response?
BTW, why doesn't he just get an "AliasMrMythPro@xxxxxxxxx" like
you and post for himself instead of lurking?
I have never tried PO's stuff and have no opinion on it,
but doesn't his FREE newsletter have some FREE "beyond_oddball"
code? Isn't that what YOU are all about?
