Many, many thank yous for your sincere replies though I detect
a slight cynicism in Mr Malcolm and Mr Dawlish's reaction. May
I reassure you that Mr Kasim puts many hours into his work.
I am sure he does, but however many hours he puts in and
however sincere in his beliefs, I will retain my cynicism
about anyone's long range forecasts.

Perhaps scepticism would be a more accurate term than cynicism?

Yes. While I am probabbly as sceptical as Malcolm about the accuracy of
any long term forecasts there is enough useful and accurate theory there
for a beginner to learn from and probably enough possible errors for the
experts to debate and mull over so a big improvement on some posts!
