I believe we Americans are endlessly addicted to trying to control the future instead of seeing and enjoying the present. I'm interested in descriptive rather than predictive statistics. So do you consider "Paul is poised to win Iowa" a descriptive rather than a predictive statement? If so, I withdraw my complaint. -- Ernie P. -- Centroids: The Center of the Radical Centrist Community <[email protected]> Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/RadicalCentrism Radical Centrism website and blog: http://RadicalCentrism.org -- Centroids: The Center of the Radical Centrist Community <[email protected]> Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/RadicalCentrism Radical Centrism website and blog: http://RadicalCentrism.org
