What on earth are you talking about?

I gave you analogies and you took them literally!
Are you that lacking in insight?

Of course, the extreme cases are easily recognised but what about someone who is right 60% of the time? Can you recognise that his predictions are 60% probable? I doubt it.

Or take someone like Berkland, claiming 75% accuracy when his actual scored are 35%. How would you know that on your own?

Get real, David.
