There's that binary thinking again. There's a difference between
presenting information in a comfortable environment and more intense
coercion involving threats. Baptists tend toward the latter from my
limited experience.

All decisions are the result of binary thinking. Why do you denigrate it?

My criticism of your binary thinking refers to your rhetorical tactic of
presenting circumstances as an either/or choice between two polar
opposites. The real world is seldom that simple. There are usually
more than two choices and the possible situations usually span a wide
spectrum.

But the decision always boils down to a binary process.

Another oversimplification.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_error


Analog to digital conversion is not under discussion.

Decision-making is a binary process.

I thought you had a math background. If the goal of the decision
process is accuracy the analogy has some merit. The universe is analog
in nature down to the quantum level. When you use a 1 bit converter the
statistical result is a large error. The more bits the less distortion.

There is a technique to increase accuracy with a 1 bit converter by
rapidly dithering but I don't think you want to go there.

You are conversing with a very narrow minded individual, you know...

Interesting. Looks like a bitch to hammer in!

Maybe for weak-wristed Girlieman.
You are an old man. Care to wager $500,000 US dollars that I can
beat
you in a spiral nail hammering competition?

I didn't think so.

Oh, he'll huff and puff and act like he's going to bet, but he won't.
He
and Harry do the exact same thing, when it comes to a little wager,
they
cut and make stupid excuses.

Close. Romney, along with a few other dumb-assed Republicans opened his mouth and inserted foot one
too many times.

So did they all. There wasn't a GOP wannabe this last go-around who had
a chance for the nomination who wasn't anything other than a right-wing
extremist asshole...sort of like you.

Oh, he'll bow up until he knows you are serious, then back down, he's

Okay, everybody, watch this!! So, you said you'd bet him, right? Go for
it, or will you back down, as usual, coward?
