How Smart Are You
 

Thus any new regulatory environment should be well thought out for the possibility of its unintended consequences. Sometimes less is more and flexibility to changing environments should be the key to any process instead of presuming to assure that "it never happens again."

Lets just see how smart you Boyz really are. In the above 2 sentences there is one word that absolutely denigrates intellectually a paticular persons position. Much as a torpedo would strike the hull of a ship. Which word is it and why does it have that effect?

I'm smart enough to not take the bait.

Intellectually speaking, you misspelled "particular."

person's

I got married twice...how smart could I possibly be?

I vote for the word "should" in both sentences. It implies that it wasn't done and should have been with due competence.

The only things that are "assured"

...are DEATH and TAXES. :p

( what do I win Nostra-damn-us?)

No reading comprehension skills. Zero for you.

Again no ability to follow directions...Zero for you

Your just a paranoid old man who wanders around in the woods of Orygun in a plaid Pendleton.

Failure is not an option.

I can't answer the question because I am the grammar nazi and I could not find a single question mark in your post.

OK Hitler fixed it and I am not baiting nor playing games with anyone. There is an answer. I also need the reason why it is such a powerful word.

Flexibility. You either are, or are not.

i dont understand the question..

And U claim you are a Liberal?

Easy; in the first sentence, "its", which implies that there ARE unintended consequences, which I don't think was what the writer intended to say which is "Thus any new regulatory environment should be well thought out for the possibility of unintended consequences."

While an error, I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that it's so grave as to "absolutely denigrate intellectually a paticular persons position" because I would guess that the average reader would not catch the error and would know what, I think, the writer was trying to convey.

Yes, to continue to pick the nit, one could legitimately respond to the sentence as written by asking "the possibility of its unintended consequences to do what?"

If you are saying that there is one word that occurs in both sentences, I can't see it as of yet.

Why "presuming" of course...

And WE HAVE A WINNER>>>can you tell them why?

You're... =P
