Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

random note: Obama's slogan "Yes We Can" translates to "Thank You Satan" if you play it backwards. Verified by my voicechanger app on my phone. Fuckin creepy man.
And there you have it.

Don't mention a movie of that caliber with one of the worst presidents of all time. :loser:


It was just a note OldSchool... I didn't say anything else about it. Just it's a FACT. I can send it to your email if you don't believe me lol. White, black, Mexican, Canadian, doesn't matter who the leader is... just freaky shit man.

LOL.

Know what Yes we can backwards is? It's 'neck you say'. If you want to produce 'Thank you Satan' in reverse, then you need a slogan of "Nate is weak, not", which I think only works if you are named Nate and your opponent is accusing you of a lack of muscle mass.

email?

The 2 people I showed it to made out what it said just fine. Of course it's not going to sound exact... that's nearly impossible with backwards recordings unless they've been purposely messed with.

Secondly, if there was an equation that could be 'mustered up' to reverse our current condition, don't you think it would have already been done?
No, because being economically viable isn't always (in fact rarely) equal to being politically viable. I'm sure you know what I mean.

The body knows what fighters don't: how to protect itself. A neck can only twist so far. Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism.

I hate to be a spoilsport and ruin everyone else's fun - sorry School - but what you are saying IS EXACTLY THE POINT.
It doesnt exact. People are going to hear what they want to hear. I let three people listen to this - WITHOUT telling them what is is "supposed" and you know what; none of them heard that. When I told them what it was supposed to be saying, two of them said yeah they could kinda see that. The other said it just sounded like gibberish. Point is, if three different people hear three different things I'm sorry but it is not a FACT.

It's called phantom words.

Listen to the first file. Go through the list of words and intentionally try to listen for each phrase. The truth is that the sounds being made are just a random selection repeated over and over and people hear different things.

http://philomel.com/phantom_words/example_phantom_words.php

Go back to Obama's 'Yes we can' and tell people he is saying 'neck you say' in reverse. They most definitely will hear it and unlike the 'thank you Satan', they don't have to mentally make up phonetic sounds to make it say that.

Now I would like the ten minutes I've wasted in my life back.

The mathematical formula position I took I did get from Dylan Ratigan. I'm not on my home laptop so I can't quote it right now. He was talking about Ron Pauls plan to get us out of the hole. Or start to, at least.

And not for the short term like all the other candidates. Long term. For our children and grandchildren.

There's mathematical formulas for about everything. There's mathematical equations that explain evolution... So don't tell me there isn't an equation that could be mustered up that would reverse our current financial state. When dealing just with numbers and percentages, whether it be deficits or not, how would you NOT use an equation to solve the problem?

I wonder why Ratigan would bring that up and back up Pauls views on it if Ron Paul was actually AGAINST this type of thinking...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austrian_School#Methodology

First two paragraphs.
I was thinking about the Austrian theory of business cycles when I made my post. I think it's interesting, but incorrect. I used a car suspension analogy in the past, and it was good enough to make it again. The Austrian drives down the road in a big Crown Victoria, and complains that it sways too much in the corners, and floats up and down too much in the straights. The Crown Vic's lightly sprung suspension does a good job of eliminating sharp road-induced accelerations, but makes you feel a big disconnected from the road. I argue that they should drive something with a stiffer suspension (i.e. higher fractional reserve percentage and interest rates) but they insist on getting rid of the suspension. The next day they hit a bump, break a control arm, and careen into the ditch.

Here is an infinitely better analogy.

The Austrians argue that the business cycle is caused by our central bank attempting to manage the economy by changing interest rates. The fractional reserve percentage greatly affects how much the money supply expands and contracts when rates change. I (and most economists) believe that the ability to quickly change the money supply allows the economy to run at a more even rate, kind of like how a suspension system allows your car to handle bumps in the road more smoothly.

your suspension system analogy would only work in our current situation if your car's suspension continued to expand your shocks outward over time to compensate for the deterioration of most other components that contribute to your car's ride, giving you the illusion that your car is still riding fine. Eventually those shocks meet their limit of expansion and you must suffer the ill effects of the many other failing components, while at the same time the shocks actually have no choice but to contract, which only accelerates the problem.
