"So, Erin, at last we meet..."

Open Letter to "Squawk on the Street" September 7, 2010

(Background: first posted in my Parabolica blog.  I was reading a lot of physical theory at the time-but, even with that caveat, this is inexcusable...)

I watch a lot of TV and, while I have no actual experience or training in this field, I have some suggestions that could make viewing your product even more enjoyable.
(1) Stop being so obsessed with numbers, it's so last week. Currently, the debate swirls around whether Unified Field Theory or Null theory is the proper expression of our reality, neither of which are composed of the cardinal and ordinals you people are blathering on about. If you believe in UFT, the sum of the universe is unknown in the expansionary model and one in the cyclical concept (typical reality expressed as a fraction of the singularity). In Null theory the sum is 0, as its reality is based on dimensionality. Two points determine a line, a dimension, three points (non-linear) express length and width, four length, width and depth (the dimensions of our typical reality), understanding at all times that none of those points actually exist except as reference to another. Thus, the sum is zero and we don't exist except as reference to some unknown. While compelling in space theory, Null theory forgets time as the fourth dimension, which when assumed, establishes points as more than reference to each other, rather as co-ordinates, which due to the Uncertainty Principle can not be precisely known (but probabilities can be assigned), from which those probabilities define reality functioning as a binary,0 or 1, again depending on whether the model was purely expansionary, a priori, or cyclical in keeping with our assumption of causality. The hilarious thing is, all models end up binary at their base because they flow from Newton's assumption of causality, object/ subject, action/ reaction! You've got to see how funny that is, right?
But you never talk about it. Instead its all counting, like in kindergarten-how many fingers do I have? How many fingers do I have now? I'm just saying it gets boring after a while.
(2) Once or twice in every show, have Erin look down, gently closing her eyes while murmuring softly, soulfully, "Uuuunnnnnhhhh." That would be just as good.
Hope you find these suggestions helpful. All the best. TVA
PS. Stop saying "tough ROAD to hoe". The expression is "tough ROW to hoe" like in a row of plants.
Additional PS. It has been brought to my attention that he might be saying "tough road to HO'" which is a different concept entirely. It is New York, Wall Street, after all. If this is the case, continue.
