Richnimrod Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Among the great many things for which most of are thankful, I certainly count "The Board" here at this wonderful forum for allowing us to so freely share with, learn from, and help one another. Our passion is never so completely enjoyed as when we share our experiences with like-minded folks at SB.com. So, Many Thanx to Jim, all the mods, and all the friends I've met here. Happy Thanksgiving! :grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 This reminds me of a true story. There was an English county fair. Among other things, was a contest to guess the correct weight of a giant ox. After the fair was over, and prizes awarded, a man asked if he could have all the used tickets from the guess the weight of the ox game. There were about 700 total guesses. He was shocked to discover that the average of all guesses was only off by a pound of the correct answer. This was much closer than any individual guess. In some ways, I think that could be a good analogy for what we have here. :toast: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Good story, and apt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerlam92 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 (edited) But it brings to mind the difference between precision and accuracy. I bet the average could be close to the mark but the variation is huge. But then again that's kind of like here as well. Thanks the Boss for SB.com.
