“Math is hard.”
On Amtrak and the Verizon air card network was down for awhile.
We can all resume this conversation next week on “Last Week’s Biggest Sales” I think there will be 4 of them!!!! Team Bear will, as usual, be flabbergasted. 🙂
Smudge, you made the point very well.
hey, as long as you aren’t trying to bury the hatchet in my body anywhere, I’m game. Peace. And apologies for the slight. Have a great weekend.

Good grief. Here, try this on:
“Out of a random sample of four people looking for work six months ago, none of them have found a job yet. I think that might be an indicator.”
“Nonsense! Out of a sample of four people who found work this week, all four people now have a job!”
We probably ought to bury the hatchet on this one lechacal. Its not like it was something really important like the price of real estate or wether there are too many strollers in PS. Apologies for the profanity.
Wow, I was there the entire time last night and didn’t notice any of this going on. It must have been during the 3 hours spent talking to Alex and Simon (ok, maybe not quite that much).
Like wasder, I had very enjoyable conversations with both DIBS and lechecal (whom I regretted not seeing at the last bash) and didn’t realize any of that was going on.
“So, a small sample of unsold houses is meaningful but a small sample of sold houses is not?? The logic is mindboggling.”
You do realize that there is a big difference between these two small samples. One can go either way and one can, by defintiion, only give you one result. Probably too much energy expended either of these, but one clearly has a better chance of accurately measuring the market than the other.
Yes,wasder, the BBP thread did come to mind. I just didn’t remember the specifics.
