Trolling are we Mike?
Well Mike, it's hard to argue with someone who refuses to explain his argument, so I'll just pass along this little secrets that you may not know: The earth is actually not flat. Those of us who believe that the earth is round are (mostly) happy to share our earth (and its attentdant superhighways) with you folks.

Biased study? perhaps. Unscientific methods? perhaps. At least they explained themselves. All you are doing is saying they are wrong and refusing to say why.

Great momemts in business history were always preceded by a visionary who instead of saying "why?" said "why not?"
