You are confused about the nature of stochastics - studies indeterminacy, not cause and effect. leveymg Jul 2012 #134
You should have read the OP which stated that there was a direct link between Limbaugh's speech SlimJimmy Jul 2012 #135
Is your problem with nadin's OP above , G2Geek's DK post, or Paul Rosenberg at OpenLeft? leveymg Jul 2012 #136
