    This could be a hot topic but it is more informational than hot.
    Any opinions on this?

    Which part do you find scary? I'm not a statistician, so can't give an educated response on most predictions. Or any for that fact!!

    One thing I really hate is when someone averages a statistic and states it as a fact. Like 2.75 kittens were killed while you read the first sentence of this post. And then they put set dates on when a future technology will be made instead of predicting when it is estimated to happen. Inaccurate hype. :-D

    For me, too much information :confused
    100% of information is never 100% correct.

    57.89% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

    WRONG! it is 57.89065%! :-D

    Personal pet peeve I guess. I have always been bugged when say the yearly average of a statistic is divided up evenly by 365 days, or by hours or minutes, and someone says 5 kittens died in the last 30 seconds...

    In the time it took me to view this video, 25 post were done on MG site..
    I could have taken out the trash
    I could have made a fresh pot of coffee
    my dog could have finished her food and had a cool drink of doggie water
    my heart beat 300 times
    I watched the weather on the news and got the five day forecast

    sorry couldn't resist
