I should say any significant new undertaking, even within an area where the company has decent competency too.

You either believe, or you don't. And you can't fake it. There's really no choice at all.

As far as accuracy goes, listen to Sarah Palin. http://www.feministing.com/archives/019739.html -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen

And you still don't get it. DNA doesn't know anything about itself, merely whether the phoneme it has produced is good enough to survive and reproduce. All the "sophistication" involves differernt ways of doing the random mutation process - in big gene-duplicating chunks versus single nuclear polymorphisms. This is about as far from "intelligent" as one can get. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen

Nice guesses, but there is no conclusive proof for your claim either, yet you tout it and yourself as being the only viable "observation", and THAT IS as far from intelligence as it gets. No "about as" about it. |
