I lump all that in under the phrase "gaming the system". That's one
of the points I've been trying to make. Choose better targets.
It's not us against the "uber-wealthy", it's us against the
overwhelmingly greedy. Many of them are in the same category as the
uber-wealthy, many are not.<br>

Well, actually, I think it's only 1% of the 99% that don't want
Paul<br>
(can I call you Paul?) involved in the OWS movement. <br>
<br>
This means that Paul should form the OOWS (Occupy Occupy Wall
Street)<br>
and rail against the 1% that is against him railing against the
1%.<br>
<br>
(Pardon me... I think my graphics calculator just exploded).<br>

Very humorous! The OWS crowd don't want their ideological purity
and<br>
clarity <br>
of vision upset by the heretical likes of likes of Mr. Rumelhart.
The<br>
99% <br>
indeed!<br>
