The Thread Noone Wants to Read

Some of you have seen me around here for a while. Some like me, some don't. It's the same for all of us, right? You just can't please everyone. Believe it or not, even Paul McCartney has a few people who don't like him.... especially as he referenced a female rap artist at a music awards with, "I love that guy!"
(above, that's the fluff, now we move along.)
Anyways, I like to teach by doing. Theorizing is ok and sometimes fun, and debates can be invigorating, but there's nothing like DEMONSTRATING. And there's nothing like "teaching by doing."
Now there's another thread in this forum where someone is telling me that people have choices. But for those who know me, I think in terms of a jailhouse inhabitant having fewer choices than non-prisoners and certainly of a different variety and quality. So generalizing that "people have choices" is about as revealing as an astronaut's spacesuit.
So I'm conducting a small online experiment -- in real time -- right here -- right now. I've done one of these little babies before in the *DNO* thread which is long down the chain of posts. But let me say this, first, before we get started. Sometimes a lesson can be a little unpleasant, but keep in mind, that I've only ever done my best to give good information to people in need. And sometimes that information can only be given through unorthodox methods. Or else, if you prefer, the rich can go on getting richer, and the poor can go on staying poor. It's up to you, right? After all, as someone recently told me:
People have choices.

A picture is worth a thousand words, so take a quick look at the information on this link, and afterwards, I encourage you to reply here with your feedback regarding this experiment and the idea that "people have choices", especially in a field where it is well known that "people act on emotion and then rationalize it afterwards" -- or maybe that meant everyone but you and me?
I've also posted the link below.
Regards,
Sam
