  1. Yes I am sure of it Twin.
  2. @Mel Hopkins cam you send me 5he date and time stamp for the earliest and the latest correspondence. Also the location you received or from which it was sent. And I'll have a look. Also I would love to read the post. Is it about synchronisation omens or coincidence?
  3. No and once again you bring facts to the discussion. The easiest way to understand the relationship is to think of money as something you buy. If demand is high so is the price. Interest is the price of money. Money is one product where the value is less than the price which is due to its utility. International trade of commodities are in USD. China is pushing to supplant athe dollar with their currency. Which I believe is the yuan. I thought they might be successful. However now I am less sure. I agree have some understanding of the how the Financial Markets operate and the products would be a useful first step in investing. Otherwise it becomes speculation or gambling. However I am not licensed to give financial advice.
  4. I have an additional moniker for UR CB BOTH Boys of the Hood.
  5. The President appoints the chairman of the FRB but the chairman is independent
  6. @Cynique I was fortunate to see Rap in Haffen park in the Bronx. Cool Herc the was the architect of Hip Hop his dad had a the record store two blocks from my home. I also saw house in the last days of the Paradise Garage. The DJ was Larry Levan and he took Frankie Knuckles under his wings. Which is where Frankie learnt how to DJ. He was initially doing the lights. Frankie is from New York. Larry Levan turned down the gig in Chicago and suggested Frankie Knuckles. I grew up on rap and later became a house head. Later on I heard some Jazz Legends play live. As luck would have I also met the leader of a band called The Family Stand. Went to a couple of their shows. One of which the female lead Jackie McGhee brought me on stage and sang a song to me.
  7. Sly Stone only got the rights to his music back in the last few years of his life. Phil Jackson gets paid because he trademarked threepeat. But I believe it was Byron Scott who said it. We create wealth for others.
  8. I am glad you have finally listened to what @Troy and @Cynique have been trying to tell you for years. Naw just joking. I do find it amazing that you post this. " The illogical and very theoretical (oxy moron) question... Is a thought experiment to improve your thinking. Your response is illuminating to everyone except you. You are a concrete thinker. And so it ends.
  9. Black people get pimped for our culture.
  10. You can believe whatever you wish. It doesn't have any material effect on anyone even you.

  13. Even though I addressed Pioneer. I had no hope of him thinking differently. I can think of one instance where beliefs were shattered. Quantum Physics. I believe Einstein withdrew one of his theories because it didn't make sense but he was posthumously proven correct. I believe he called it his greatest error.
  14. I would question my ability or in this case inability to recognise the truth. Or my faulty powers of perception . There's at least one of the option... If you question all assumptions you will most like see or understand more than people who never question that they could be wrong. So even though I generally don't agree with you. I had to go back and check. Then I rechecked and thought about the sentence structure. So even though I posted two corrections you never went back and read my original quote. The first correction you assumed that you were right and I was wrong. In the second you didn't bother checking since you assumed I doubted myself and had been wrong twice. The first time I was wrong about being wrong.
  15. I even went back and clarified what I wrote because I mistakenly thought Pioneer was right concerning the tense of the verb. So good luck with that task. Troy It should be stated that something cam be logical but be false or nonsense. Knowing either philosophy, sets even conditional statements would be helpful.
  16. I was thinking this as well. Or rather answers or dependent on the question, therefore it is more likely to have illogical answers rather than illogical questions. I actually made a mistake. It should have read what if everything you believed was was wrong. So I did use the wrong tense however it is highly unlikely to have beliefs in the future, that you are aware of currently. Actually I am mistaken, discovered implies the past. So just to be clear if you presently discovered that all of your beliefs are wrong. Also discovered implies knowledge which is different than opinions or beliefs
  17. At the moment I am focused on Astrology, Tarot, Numbers , Time and predictions. I am happy with my progress.
  18. Human design came out a couple of years ago. It's the new flavour that some folks arerabing about. People talk about what category they are and that's about it. Perhaps there are some practitioners out there are teacher's that can shed light on this diagram. I am not that person. It's a cool design. There personalised a chart by using a person's silhouette. And made it look scientific with some numbers and futuristic by use of shape. From a marketing and design standpoint it's a hit. And while I appreciate innovation I'll pass on this one. I went to the page it says that it will give you a user manual for your life. Could be but it's not in a language I understand.
  19. Hey Troy he's a Troll and your an Aries. It's like Billy goat gruff.
  20. I find that I have to make an effort to post. I'll start to write a post on here it Facebook and then I stop or I delete it. Even in actual reality I talk less it creates space and an interesting dynamic especially when I'm around people who like to talk
  21. It hadn't occured to me that some people can't think abstractly. Until you said it. Since then I have been having less arguments with block heads . Yeah it paralyzed my brain. I think I would be pretty depressed to realise that I had gotten everything wrong. Especially when I have the thought, "How can they not see how wrong they are?" Then I would think that was me, about everything. Then I would reconcile myself to the fact that I was so wrong but thinking I was right. It would be very humbling and I think I would probably stop talking or at least stop debating.
  22. Pass I have been limiting my conversation to conceptual thinkers, or people who I find stimulating.
  23. I am not certain of I would feel liberated. I am not certain of I would feel liberated. @Cynique silly cows should be used to ribbing. A couple of pos(t)ers need a bigger soapbox.
  24. You're being too hard on yourself... again.
