As for the economics involved it is clear you have more of a clue than Eric the Obtuse or Odin will ever have.

As for understanding the economic implications in deciding where to eat I don't know if I should feel complemnted or insulted at the comparison to Eric or Odin.  I mean it isn't that hard to be intellectually superior to Eric (my 5 year old nephew is and he struggles with Dr. Seuss--which is hardly high literature).  As for Odin, I think his problem is he's incredibly naive.  Somehow he's managed to avoid life kicking the shit out of him--but he can't avoid it forever and he'll ether wise up or flounder.

True enough but it is always a good idea to make sure that any new members get a heads up on who the morons are around here.  Odin spends most of his time being outraged which is very time consuming but he will either live and learn or he won't live long.

Ah altruism.  I find that new members typically have to learn for themselves who is and who is not a moron.  I find that a disproportionate number of those who would spend time on a forum such as this tend to either be partisan hacks or independent thinkers.
