That's actually a good way to emphasize my point: NOT like MIT did!

Super computers are great, but assumptions and inputs win this one.
No need to use equally resource-intensive technique.

Hi Curry, Ray Dalio has a new book out on this subject you may find interesting 
(The Changing World Order). There is a chapter on Linked In if you have access 
to it 
(https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/chapter-7-us-china-relations-wars-ray-dalio/ 
) 
or possibly on other sites as well. I went to a talk he gave online last week. 
Fascinating broad thinker. Modelling these kinds of dynamics in software (like 
MIT did) requires tracking hundreds, perhaps thousands, of different variables 
and all their permutations and combinations. It’s a bit like forecasting 
weather: typically reserved for super computers. Okay, I’m convinced we have 
now drifted WA off topic 
