          Who cares about money? And intelligence is overrated. There are more important things in life than money and brains.

              I always knew you where much much more intelligent that me but the realization that you entire group is about two standard deviations above mine is depressing.


              Cybernetic enhancement and genetic engineering can't come soon enough, I can't let my kinds be as dumb as I am.

              Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
              The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
              The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila

                Relax, Hera. KH and his peers aren't as smart as he thinks they are.

                  Given what your group is/does, are you sure this is meant as a compliment ?

                    I remember from my days at various investment banks that it was a standard practice to single out the young and gullible and ply them with empty platitudes to get them to work all hours. IIRC GS is one of the more 'hard working' banks and peer pressure is such that it is difficult to leave work at anything resembling a decent time (I always felt guilty being the first to leave of an evening at CSFB when it was kind of busy before 9pm) - but hey, that's what the bonus is for, eh?
                    Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?
