    It looks to me like he cares about who you think cares, not about the poll question.

    But hey.

    Oh, one of those "haha if you pick the obvious answer, you're such a plebian" questions.

    Spoiler: You'll call anyone who picks 1 a fool, and anyone who doesn't your BFF.

    Option 2, obviously, because if Ray Kurzweil has taught me anything, it's that always bet on the exponential growth curve to make miracles happen. Also, but seriously, everyone has heard that fable of the origin of the chess board.

    In the real world, most people would still pick the million dollars... even if they know better. It's been pretty much demonstrated conclusively that we are not generally rational actors when it comes to money, and that's part of the reason why our economy is so fucked up. And to top that shitty scenario off, our administrators still set economic policy based on very old models which require assumption of rationality in order to make them work. They're not realistic, and they don't scale to the size actual economies operate on. /soapbox

    When it comes to the $560 million that Florida had, yes, I'd take the lump some.

    Half of a shit load, is still a shit load.

    You'd take 1 million over 11 million?

    Your comprehension skills aren't as sharp as you think they are, I see.

    Nope just what you are saying is irrelevant.

    ...So it takes 31 days for the 1 cent to double?

    ProTip: To damage your credibility, simply call any of the Phantasy Star games "massively-multiplayer."
