    Premature Changes by Gray as he crawfishes now that there is some activity out there is what I would expect from the so-called “EX-PERT”…

    Why do you expect this guy to be right 100% of the time?

    Individual investors partially base their investment directions based on what stock analysts and economists predict (educated guesses basically) from what they are seeing in their metrics. Lots of money hinges on what those analysts and economists are predicting.

    Insurance Actuaries price risk partially based on Hurricane models that guys like Gray put out.

    So why the double standard? If everybody’s gonna gang up on Gray then you should be ganging up on the economists and the stock analysts which affect the way business is conducted in this country.

    I’m not ganging up on him – just pointing out that he was full of it from teh beginning & then tried to fix it & has proven that he is still not right. Not sure why he gets the big bucks for guessing (educated or not) what is going to happen when it’s apparent that he has no clue – just like the rest of us!

    Do I – one poster – resemble a gang to you?

    You and the rest do kinda resemble a gang, yes.

    What people have got to learn is that Expert does not equal all knowing. Experts make mistakes. I thought everyone knew that.

    Get a grip. Why do they call them experts if they are just guessing? Is it because they guess better than everyone else? If so they never asked me for my guess & that’s just not fair!

    When I got to a Doctor who is labeled an expert in his field, is it because he knows what he is doing or because he guesses better than everyone else in his field?

    When I take my sports car to the shop so that an expert can adjust the carb so I get more power, is it because he is guessing how to?

    Gray & all the others out there that predict the future on anything or of whatever, are glorified soothsayers that have finagled a way to get paid for it!

    Dang it, I wish I could get paid for my predictions. Especially since I can predict things too, like Not Infallible will have something else to type before he/she is done here! I bet ME might too!
