Why should we know about IRx ? (Score 1)

I don't think we need to spend effort in predicting the future trends or finding patterns in the past and projecting it into future. You don't need to calculate when exactly a wave comes or where it comes. Live in present, see what is happening around, respond when a wave comes, catch it and ride it as it happens. Synchronize with nature and be spontaneous. That is enough to make a meaning of your life. All predictions are childish attempts to show off oneself as better visionary than common people. I can see a kid in Paul Krugman and in Gordon. Absolutely average people made more of their life just by responding to what is happening in the present, and by not fretting about every short-term thing and not worrying about the future. Evolution takes its course. You just have to play along not in front of it. Infact, the desire to own or control the future is what makes you totally miss the present. Most likely you miss the future as well due to accuracy risk in the predictions.
