    this is what you said on an earlier thread...



    So let me get this right... On the one hand you think the market is random, but on the other you think it is worthy of studying for an MSC. Based on your reasoning, surely you should ditch Black & Scholes for a random number generator. After all, its all random

    I guess you can always "put up your psychological barriers to convince yourself you are right".

    Thanks for the morning laugh. If you think a MSc in financial mathematics is about the gambling that you've convinced yourself has a scientific basis, you really are a cretin.
    Your comments would have been relevant if I had been doing a MSc in Astrology
    HTH but IDI.

    You mean like this? Majestic-12: Distributed Search Engine

    Now. If you just new somebody who could actually provide you a decent search engine algorithm on top of your monsterous index, you know you might just have something.

    Anybody have any good optimized search routines? Anybody??????

    Risk and entrepreneurialism is good.

    Better to try and (fail or succeed) than to have only studied!!
    Thanks Marillion Fan. My brain was freezing over in my last contract, so happy to be doing what I enjoy.

    I guess the eunuchs can get back to scrolling through lines of code now in the vain hope that their managers won't notice they are not producing anything.

    Yes those are ok.

    Santa is no entrepreneur - he creates no jobs, no useful product for he is allegedly a dirty spekulant.

    HTH, but I doubt it as you have put your psychological barriers up to convince yourself you are right.
