Tornado Alley (PROG)

[Zardiw]

The 'common wisdom' is very often wrong.......proven buddy.

And those who come up with some truth are often ridiculed/shunned, etc.

How about the guy who recommended washing hands before delivering babies, after the doctors had been working in a morgue, back in the 1600's or something....first example I can think of.

Look it up......

And you seem a tad emotional on this....

From the IBox:

A forum to present, discuss, debate and lampoon matters of interest great and small, including matters political.
A place to share, and preserve, all manner of information, speculation, analysis, commentary, opinion and humor.
Include source links when available.

All points of view are welcome here; a progressive, "reality-based" point of view is well represented here.

Only specific investing/trading discussions are, as such, off-topic here, banished to other good homes on iHub.
More general discussions of business and economic matters, including the markets, are in bounds and fair game.
Beyond specific investing/trading discussions, there are no forbidden topics here.

Strong language understood and tolerated in context, as in a pertinent quoted source or for a sincere emphasis.
Avoid gratuitous usages; avoid regular or routine use.
Heated arguments understood and tolerated in context, so long as they remain focused primarily on points at issue.
Avoid gratuitous taunting and baiting; avoid initiating personal spats; don't just troll.
