The parent post should be ignored. The information content, while real, is misapplied, and that "10" number is pulled out of his ass. This as a feeble attempt at garnering karma, so moderate it accordingly. Even with a million eyes, all it takes is 5 -1's.

Basic fucking arithmetic shows that one over one-tenth is 10. That is, 1/(1/10) = 10.
It's one thing to challenge someone, but to get them moderated down even though they're right is just plain wrong.

Not this crap-ass again! This guy is a karma-whore, either copy and pasting stuff from a Google search on the topic, or making up some inane bullshit.
I'm glad I have moderator points today to sink this guy.
