Well Trumpy, it isn't actually in my eyes, it was another poster that asked 'why he is concerned'. I am not concerned, I am just interested, but not interested enough to trawl through 4000+ posts.

Speaking of interesting, you mention research. Fooca, by his own admittance, conducts his research from publicly available information, kind of like a school project, where google is your friend. That's fine, it's all linked, so I don't doubt that aspect. Quite often I notice that he prefixes or suffixes with 'I could be wrong' or 'unless this happens' which is also fine, but these are what I would refer to as 'opinions' as distinct from 'facts'. This gets me thinking and I start asking myself questions like 'what if Fooca has got to one of these fork in the road moments and made the wrong call?'. Same for yourself, you have a pre-determined idea as to how Hammersley will unfold which includes assumptions, what if you haven't read the playbook?

When things don't quite add up, it's important to dig a little deeper, so if it is OK with you, I am going to keep digging.
