I was talking with my video editing teacher after class and he was talking about a new story that was on CNN about a guy who picked a ton of stocks that went big and was arrested for insider trading. He claimed he was from the future and that's how he knew what stocks to pick.

 

I can't seem to find any news stories about it online. Sounds like an intriguing story.

Was the guys name Marty McFly ??

C'mon, wasn't it Biff that made all the bets and got rich off of it?

 

 

 

Wow, that story is crazy. I mean, even if he had insider knowledge of all that I still find it hard to believe that he could not loose on any stocks. Strange.

All he wants is to be allowed to return to the future in his "time craft."

Actually it was 88 miles per hour.....Mine begins at 30 mph, thanks to a 15 inch steel wing on the trunk.

Operative word being: not.

 

Ryan said "Not make it back" (to the future).

 

I believe most of us understand the operational parameters of the flux capacitor, in that the conveyance that transports said capacitor must attain a ground speed (relative to it's place along the space-time continuum) of 88 mph in order to be within it's "fluxing" capacity.

 

I believe that goes without saying. :thumbs:

OOpps....looks like it's time to go back to school, and catch up on those reading lessons......been getting a little to much sun down here....I would talk more about "fluxing" but I just havn't had enough to drink today

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
