Gambling of any sort is a loser. The odds on any type of gambling are not worth the cost. If it was worth it they wouldn't call it gambling. They would call it winning.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

Re: Expected Value per hour
said that EvC got boring
That may be true, but I wonder how much of his decision was because he did not get the deference he felt his opinions and arguments deserved.
