When I went to make this post, amazingly, there wasn’t a category for books? Its almost like we aren’t big readers. Anyway, its been a long time since I’ve been looking for time to read. But this book is great.
Its not political, its really a book about using data to prove the conventional wisdom wrong. […]
I’ve been preaching for awhile that the human impact on Global warming was a huge farce made up by scientists whose grants and paychecks completely depend on perpetuating the myth…. but they’ve always pointed to the data…. uh oh…

I believe Obama beats McCain, and I […]
For those who don’t know, there is “stimulus package” coming down the pike. But its not really going to do what they hope. The Doug’s in the world have to be upset at this. Basically they are adding $150 billion dollars to the debt (while also devaluing the dollar more) all to give people tax […]
