Oh, you know you liked the video Jack! Just admit it....
If you are going to argue a point, at least get factual information to back up your side.....

Oh Jack, you are showing your age. It's not FA.
Would you like to try again?

It's all about Karma Jack.
I knew that you were trying to throw a first round curve to me, and not knowing who it would be, I chose to use an avatar that could counter even the most strongest adversary. That's right. Officer Poncherello. But today, I knew that his magic had run it's course so I decided to get another one. To be honest, I was going to go with Adrian Zmed (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0957460/), but I thought that another 70's, dark hair, ultra good looking, TV cop was not going to do it two times in a row. So, at lunch today as I was eating my barbeque (with mac and cheese and sweet potato crunch), I looked to my right and noticed a rather (very) large man eating at the table beside me. Then it hit me. Why not stay in the 70's and bring back that symbol of wierdness and annoyance, Fred Berry AKA Rerun from that really bad 70's show What's Happening. He would give me the Karma to defeat the sinister Yellow and Purple (his real name), and would propel me into the next round fully prepared for my next opponent.
Karma Jack, it's all about Karma.

Look..that's great and all, but you old guys need to realize it's 2007. This isn't the PLC Senior Tour - this is the real thing. It's good to go with your strength, but 70's sitcoms will only get you so far - karma or not.

Secret: DHARMA, not karma, will disarm me—you know—1990's sitcoms. . . Sorry I have been out of action today—girls playoffs— http://ia.ec.imdb.com/media/imdb/01/I/69/35/22m.jpg

Based on LeDude's posting decline (and the apparent reason for eliminating all decent posters from competition) I could draw some astonishing correlations. Chico would have to provide the hard data, however, at face value I see these conclusions.
1. There is a strong inverse relationship between coaching experience and posting ability. I would not be surprised at an r value lower than -0.8.
2. I was tempted to say the same inverse relationship exists between education and posting ability as Ledude's advancement in college seems to indicate. However, that would lead to the conclusion that high schoolers have the best posting ability. Since this is clearly not the case, there must be some curve or cyclical relationship. High schoolers have low posting ability, early college students seem to reach a relative maximum, late college drops down. Perhaps post graduate rises some and parents of young children. Once the children start playing soccer, the parental posting ability drops dramatically, and then some of the old people with nothing left in their lives but the message board often show some sparks of wisdom and wit (though tainted with pessimism and grouchiness--the "dark side" of posting). The function relating posting ability to education/age is a complicated one.
