[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4322"] Ok...guess I brought up an item that some are not in to. Anyhoo...the POINT was (that I didn't make clear in my post)...that without data, "statistical" records (charts, graphs, spreadsheets, etc.) ANY type of business will have difficulty in tracking AND PREDICTING where they and their stock are heading. There's a saying in business: "If you don't know where you've been, how in heck can you predict where you are going?" And, if you don't know where you are going...that's exactly where you'll end up! Yes, there are "good" and "bad" statistics...some are very adept at manipulating data to serve their own advantage...from individuals to government entities. Yes, some people use statistics and data to "lie", while others use these tools to efficiently manage and tract their business operation. Not all people "fly by the seat of their pants" or "shoot from the hip". [email=info@runningarrowfarm.com]info@runningarrowfarm.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
