Consult a dictionary to check all the meanings of the word "claim". So, now you claim it was your own observation - then what was wrong what was wrong with my "If" and what specifically did you observe? You persist in your error not learning from experience. Consult an elementary text on semantics ...

What was it that was observed and by whom? This should have been obvious even to you. What was observed, by me, is that a near-infinite supply always tends towards zero demand with possibly human necessities -- food, water, air, clothing, shelter -- excepted. Don’t assume this response means I’ll co ...

I have a couple of loose ends to clear up before I leave this forum for good. One has to do with Knoppix which is by far the best operating system available for home use if you have sufficient resources to run it. (Puppy is quite possibly the best for limited older computers.) First, there’s a known ...

Here are some [undeleted] quotations from Bernie_by_the_Sea: (1) I've had trouble mentally calculating (2) Now It looks like at least twenty of my posts were deleted and deletion is ongoing, 126 threads yesterday, 106 today. (3) In fact I lost most of my humility in the 1950's when the US Army told ...

now consider this Bernie BS....if it works on your mobile, why can't it work on a laptop. Time 4 medication Sonny Jim, and I'll book the the nursing home for you shall I? acute dementia is creeping into your off the wall statements. Who said it won't work on a laptop? Are you hallucinating or just ...

It's the opposite. If a certain material or product is in abundance, people use it more because it's a cheap and readily available commodity. There are numerous examples. Such as cow farts, puppy poop, ants, spiders, locusts and seawater? Who said anything about a commodity? An interest group isn't ...

It could equally mean Mac, Solaris or Windows. ...

Since I’m seldom in Canada I've had trouble mentally calculating how much Canadian gallons are in real gallons. Or has Canada gone to liters? I drove across Canada sea to sea in 1963 and there were Imperial gallons all the way. yup liters for a few decades now Aha, then I would have the Mexican p ...

And this reports that Linux usage is rising: http://news.yahoo.com/s/pcworld/20110425/tc_pcworld/linuxwinsbiginthreecoups The vast majority of the increase is coming from the Android where people don't even realize they're running Linux (and don’t care -- they are not converts to the cult).

Out of hundreds of web sites I checked, I found only one that states the Law of Supply and Demand the way I do, and it was an obscure text published in 1902. It even had an illustration based on a children’s seesaw with supply on one end and demand on the other with a pegboard system to raise and l ...

Bernie, not to sound offensive or anything, but can i ask where you get your information? Seems to me like it is overly exaggerated, at least in my point of view. Perhaps you meant javascript and flash are dangerous on phishing sites like heavy download/upload sites or pornographic websites, you ...

The Law of Supply and Demand is in every sophomore Economics text. If it actually says what you claim, a citation would be enough to convince me. I'm beginning to tire of this "claim" business on this forum. I NEVER MAKE CLAIMS. PERIOD. I'm still working on an answer. Patience is often learned with ...
