A valid opinion. Please forgive my first person perspective, but I work with statistics, trends and projections - It is paramount to include all data in an assumption (that's all we are really debating here isn't it guidelines and assumptions).
A [u]truth [/u]from that is consistent in terms of our deductions about the game is fleeting at best. There is a mechanism in play that has to be observed in terms of how you choose to play and how you are measured, none of which are solely controlled by you and are heavily influenced by circumstances beyond your control.
In God we trust - all others must bring data. William Edward Deming
Hope to see you out there
