Barzilai paradox edit

I suggest that you do some further reading including upon (but not restricted to) such topics as the strong independence axiom (aka “the sure-thing principle”), and the Arrow Impossibility Theorem. These will help to provide you with the intellectual infrastructure to reälize that there is indeed nothing about this supposed paradox that is both correct and original. —SlamDiego←T 13:40, 29 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your suggestion, much appreciate it. The article will return as soon as it meets Wikipedia's requirements.Ruud Binnekamp (talk) 10:04, 10 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Fair enough, but to do that the work would not only have to be published in a peer-reviewed journal of economics, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, psychology, mathematics, or philosophy, but would have to then draw more attention than does the typical article in such a journal. —SlamDiego←T 11:57, 10 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Have you researched these topics yet? When you have sufficient backgorund, I will be quite happy to discuss the ostensible paradox further. —SlamDiego←T 19:01, 14 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have responded to your comment on my talk page there, so to keep the conversation together.Cretog8 (talk) 20:53, 26 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
