Also, i would strongly recommend you to read a book called "The Black Swan" by Nassim Taleb. The book talks about the so-called black swans, events completly unforeseen and that causes heavy (and unpredicted) consequences. After reading it you would re-think the way you see the news, and their uselessness to understand (or try to predict) the future (or even the present). The chaos is the only rule, man... This book can be found in PDF at scribd.com... or if you want a copy in TXT, email me. :thumbsup:
