Why doesn’t Congress have a bigger audience when things like this happen. The entire audience should break out into riotous laughter.

In other words: “We ain’t got a clue folks.”

Imagine speaking these words when presenting your blueprints for a skyscraper.

I’m more partial to the infinite number of monkeys on an infinite number of typewriters theory myself. The reason that the laws are coming up with are so flawed is because of truncation errors due to the fact they were unable to obtain an infinite number of either monkeys or typewriters.

“It’s a great moment. I’m proud to have been here,” said a teary-eyed Sen. Christopher J. Dodd (D-Conn.), who as chairman of the Senate Banking Committee led the effort in the Senate. “No one will know until this is actually in place how it works. But we believe we’ve done something that has been needed for a long time. It took a crisis to bring us to the point where we could actually get this job done.”

It seems that my impression of Senator Dodd was correct. As he gladly helps preside over the death of his country, he laughs wickedly, contemplating further debauching of his poor, abused oath of office. There is a word: EVIL. All who consented to and participated in this act have committed it.

“The only way to know if the architecture is sound is to build it!”
...I would fire that architect IMMEDIATELY.

Such an awesome achievement, it makes a grown up lawmaker cry.

Yet he doesn’t really understand the bill, know what is in it, or what will happen until it is in place.

I’m not sure of much any more but I am certain that they no longer govern, they dictate.

A simple (and rhetorical) question. If they don’t know how this is all going to work out how is it they’re calling it an historic fix to Wall Sts. problems/corruption? It seems to me one would have to be the defn of gall to make such a pronouncement in lieu of the facts. Pls explain why these people are being taken seriously?

LOL - And here I was going to attribute it to the instability of using floating-point numbers that are both very big and very small at the same time....

Ex: suppose you have 20,000,000 [20 mil] and you add .000,000,000,1 [1 mil ^-1] the result could well be... 20,000,000, because the floating point doesn’t have the precision required to represent the number 20,000,000.000,000,000,1

Ugh. Has Dodd been hanging out with Nancy Pelosi? I wonder what kind of offspring a crossing of the two of them would produce - Rosemary's Baby?
