Correct you are. Now perhaps you can explain why 1967 was especially significant.

Why don't you guess?

I dunno. It was eight years after nationalization began and seven years after it was pretty much finished. So I'll guess it was the year The Graduate was released?

edit: now my math is bad.

Why?

[Kontiki]

Perhaps you mean this?

Or maybe this?

[Kuciwalker]

No.

Pretty bad for a mathematics guru, isn't it?

Are you stupid?

[Kuciwalker]

I'm still waiting for Kontiki to get it, but I gave up right away on Sloww.

Whenever Slowwhand gets into a discussion it's like he's in a completely different Universe from the rest of us.

For his benefit:

1) Castro began expropriating US property in 1959, 47 years ago.
2) Kuci made reference to a completely different event which took place in 1967, involving different parties on a different continent.

Sloww, you really should learn the limits of your knowledge and your intelligence. Trying to venture beyond them just makes you look silly.

Hey Kitty, how's tricks?

[KrazyHorse]

Pretty good. I think I'm going to have an awesome paper come out in the next couple of months.

[KrazyHorse]

Things weren't working out, but I came up with something pretty good today which saved the project...

[TCO]

Like I told the younger grad student, when my professor proposed a goodfy experiment, "figure out how you can still publish when it doesn't work". (Professor winced.)

[KrazyHorse]

Yeah. We were going to publish anyway, but instead of ending up a crappy paper it's going to be a good one.

Uh, no. We bombed them. We sponsored an invasion of them. We embargoed them. We allow terrorists to attack Cuba from our shores. All they did to us was tell some American companies that they had to sell to the Cuban government at the price they had been telling the Cuban government they were worth (and since the companies had been low balling, to cheat on their taxes, they felt they were robbed).
