Falling relative to an unknown variable, is meaningless. Can you at
least
see that?

the variable i am referring to is not unknown. the variable reffered to
in
this statement is the % of their goal. we know that variable in both
situations and it went down from one year to the next.

You don't know the _VALUE_ of the variable. FFS, Randy, it's all
word-games with you, isn't it.

snippy dave again. snips what he doesnt like or cant understand.

i know what i said. i said the % had dropped. you dont disagree so ill
assume you agree with that point. its you that plays the word games. you
are trying to claim i am using that to prove re-enlistment went down. i
NEVER made such a claim. i only said that it was not proof that
re-enlistment was high.

just to be clear dave, are you disagreeing with the statement 'the
percentage of their enlistment goal has gone down?

I'm not disagreeing with anything, Randy. You're completely right,
about everything. Your words are unambiguous, your intentions are
completely pure, and you're free to have the last word. You win,
O wise and glorious Randy. Gosh, I'm so impressed by your wisdom.

So why would you bring up McDonalds french fry sales goal performance
when the topic is Idaho farmer income? From here, it looks like you
are bringing up an irrelevant measurement to distort the issue.

i really have no idea what basis you are using to draw this conclusion.
this is all in your head.

Missing a sales goal is equivalent to the 106% vs. 96%. Farmer income
is equivalent to the hard number which is re-enlistment rate. Got
it now? It's not really that tough, Randy. Two different things.

I'm sure you have a really good response to all this, but I won't
see it. Go ahead and crow about how I couldn't handle you or
whatever, you probably can't help yourself. plonk

ploink or not, i know youll google it. you never answered my questions.
your fundamental premise has been that i claimed the numbers showed the
re-enlistment rates were falling. i never claimed that and you couldnt show
me where i did. you have judiciously snipped my posts to alter reality.
this one included.

no steak for you man...
