Sorry, but the first thing that came to my mind was "Jimmy Buffet is going to be Secretary of Defense?"ne1410s wrote:Warren Buffett replaced Bill Gates as world's richest person.*

As has Buffett (you may recall the huge announcement last year that Buffett is giving a large chunk of stock to Gate's foundation.)PlacentiaSoccerMom wrote:Hasn't Gates been giving away his money?ne1410s wrote:Warren Buffett replaced Bill Gates as world's richest person.*

Have you ever wondered about the house where the world's richest person lives?
It is an 87 year-old, 2.5 stories, 5830 square feet, that was remodeled in 1989 to include a racquetball court and guard shack. It is located in a fairly-regular neighborhood.
Assessed value is $710,000. It likely is not anywhere near the top 100 of Omaha's most expensive houses.

Darn, I thought maybe they found someone to fix Vista
either that or Warren Buffet was doing his own home repair.

Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
