The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Do you think there are a lot of people in that situation?

You’re the one basically asserting these tests are impossible to pass and that it’s unfair to ask that of leaders. Why don’t you pull the stats so we can see?

shape: it's probably far more likely that it's because they're in their 60's, or have been wounded or partially disabled

Great. Please go pull the military health records of all these folks and prove us evidence of disabilities. We’d like to see that.

While you’re at it, please link us to Swartzkopf’s scores since you’re asserting - absent evidence - that he couldn’t pass the test.
