What a shame that such a brilliant mind applied himself to beating casinos and grinding money out of Wall Street. He sounds like someone that could have changed the world through math and science by inventing new ways or solving real human needs rather than wasting his life figuring out where a roulette ball will stop. That or he could have inspired real science and real growth of human capital as a teacher but no just another very possibly smarter than most hedgefund manager sucking money out of the system and wasting his great potential. Interesting first few chapters sort of if you really think beating a casino is something to be all that proud of or famous for but then the book trails off into a lot of well known Wall Street so what talk you can get anywhere. I can't recommend this book unfortunately.

I have always loved putting things together, but this gave me such a headache.  I had to redo some things,  had to figure out that little hole in the corners of the shelves, because the picture just was not clear.  I took so much time studying the pictured instructions, words would have been better it took us hours, we had to go to Walmart to buy bolts and nuts that fit the firebox vents, the ones that they sent the nut would not even fit it, so it would not open and close, so we got bigger bolts and nuts, now it opens and closes.  We were finally finished, until we realize the thing would only go down half way with the crank.  We can not even open the door and stir coals because it will not go all the way down.  We took the R-pin cotter out because it was rubbing against the metal things, and the cotter kept come out.  We took it apart so much, the cotters are no good and will not stay up.  I temporarily have paper clips holding them.  Found some cotters at home depot and will go later to replace the staples.  I will never buy another one of these.  I got it because everyone says Charbroil is one of the best, oh The ash tray does not fit, it falls out.  I suggested to my husband we go get some kind of latches to put under there and maybe try to bend the edges, because this looks very dangerous, if this thing falls someone could get hurt.  They know we will not want to take these things apart and send it back, that is why they have not fixed these issues, I read bad review way back from 2014 and beyond, some of the same problems on their website.

To dam big!  Very frustrating as it takes up so much space and the plunger in the middle takes up so much room you end up trying to arrange your vegetables to extract the water.  I'm going back to a salad spinner.  Half the size and twice as effective.

The holes my idiot contractor cut to accommodate the counter top outlets did not line up, and these oversized covers were just big enough to hide his shoddy workmanship. Saved me hundreds as the alternative was to rip it out and start over.

This was so poorly designed and constructed. It took my husband who has a PhD two hours to put together. One, because the plastic track snapped in half, and two because it is so confusing with so many little parts to tinker with. The directions are obscure and it says to follow the picture on the box at one point. The problem is that the box shipping label was stuck over the picture so we couldn't even see it. Once it was all super glued together and constructed, it worked. However, had I known how difficult it was going to be and how fragile the item is I never would have bought this.

I'm not sure what the designer was thinking when they created these, but getting the 3 switches lined up perfectly (even using Leviton Ducora switches and outlets), having the internal clamping insert put in place so that it lines up, and putting the outside cover on and having something that looks great, is a very painful experience.

The internal clamping insert uses the same screws as the switches and outlets, and is more than just painful to attach. A better design would be to screw the clamping insert into the already screwed in switch and then put the outside plate on that way. But alas, the person who designed this for Leviton obviously never had to use their creation.

I expected more from a named brand like Leviton.

If I hadn't already put in all the single gang wallplates (same stupid principle, but easier to align as there is only one switch or outlet to worry about) I would have returned everything and gone with something that sadly has a screw showing.  Oh well, lesson learned.

Not recommended if you don't want to punch the wall in frustration while trying to put a 3-gang plate into place and have it look like it should actually be there.

I was very disappointed when the bulbs were recommended to be used with the industrial scinvmces and after arriving there was no way the bulbs are to be used with these sconces! In order to make them work the sconces would need to be taken completely apart ( the cage completely unscrewed) then put in the bulb and ten re contract the scone. I ended up having to purchase cylinder shaped bulbs to use as designed and am just using the Wrong bulbs wherever I can make them work. So dissappointed!

Not same as pictured, disappointed it didn't work out

Huge and very heavy.  Did not work correctly as it had to be turned a certain way or it wouldn't turn on.

This was a terrible purchase. I loved the idea of it hanging on the wall and not taking up much space. The look of it was great. However the mechanics of it actually hanging on the wall was stupid. The expectation of this heavy piece of furniture resting on a small lip of alumnium is not smart. The console is too heavy to hang on there and remain flush with the wall - it just doesn't happen. The thought of putting our expensive surround sound equipment in there is scary as it won't even hold the console. Very disappointed with this. It would be great if it had better mechanics to hang on the wall.

Awful - sounds like he's croaking though the broken end of a Coke bottle!
Why did he do it, he must be worth a billion bucks by now?
Guess there are limits to genius after all.

I purchased this tower not all that long ago and boy I thought it solved my media storage problems. It was very easy to put together but once together, the laws of physics dictates that it must fall apart! Whoever designed this obviously doesn't understand that you can't hold up the weight of many cd's or dvd's (even when not filled to full capacity!) with only a 1/4" support pin! Save your money and look elsewhere, I beg you!

Discs and video processing, as usual, were fine, but all of a sudden, for no reason, the excellent packaging and presentation of the first five seasons was replaced by not only flimsier packaging but a structure for storing the discs so cramped, and so intrusive of the space of adjacent discs, that it is a major chore just to remove the discs mounted lower than the others without getting fingers on the playing surfaces and even scratching them. Is it really possible that the dolt who thought this up is paid for his efforts? Absolutely astonishing indifference to the buyer's convenience. You can get around it, once you manage to get all of the discs out, by using small CD/DVD sleeves, available elsewhere on Amazon, for two of the discs. But why do I have to think of this?

I am a big Repairman Jack fan. I'm always on the lookout for his next novel and was excited to order this one.

I was surprised at how thin the book was. I was evem more surprised when I found I apparently ordered the large print edition with the special, giant margin art.

The biggest shock of all came when I realized I've read this story before!

Sure, the publisher thought this was a great idea, but Mr. Wilson had to approve it and rewrite the story. I'm really disappointed, enough said.

I recently watched a programme about parents who are trying, without success, to make their children geniuses. They do one of two things. They either take sperm from great scientists and hope that genius is easily inherited (which it isn't) or they bomabard their young children with information that is taught in school in the hope that they will learn it all and be a genius on the level of Newton and Einstein. They fail miserably so the programme concludes that "Genius is beyond science" (occasionally they get their child into university earlier than most people but that is ultimately superficial). It is clear that these people do not even understand what genius is:
Genius is what creates something brilliant and original
By "brilliant and original" I mean ideas such as Newton's Laws of Motion, Einstein's Theory of Relativity etc. These are not achieved by everyone except the rare geniuses because our natural ability to think on our own is squelched. As Einstein said of Faraday's dynamo "Faraday never went to school, and therefore preserved the rare gift of thinking freely".
This book is about restoring that gift. Dr Win Wenger discusses "Image Streaming", to restore our lost access to our subconscious. Much more is discussed as well. This could change the face of the planet, and bring back the Golden Age experienced in Ancient Athens.
