One small quibble - wind turbines produce electricity, wind mills mill grain. I know it's pedantic, but people in the industry get really irked when the machines are referred to as windmills. I don't know why exactly, maybe due to the marketing difficulties of "mills" versus "turbines" or because engineers like precise terminology.

I guess the avout of Arbre would refer to the distinction as"bulshytt" though, so take from it what you will.

edit: Ah, I see this was discussed below under another parent. Apologies if anyone takes umbrage to the distinction discussion.

Got it! Thanks for the response. I wasn't sure whether that was a comment on RT's strategy (i.e. implying something else going on) or on the industry as a whole.

It'd be an interesting short white paper/post to see what a technical take on DD would be in a fund of funds/institutional investing scenario. I guess that would take away some of the value of the rise in the "consultants" we're getting calls from every day.

Is the implication of

the answer is 'we have loads of PhD math geniuses building the strategies and amazing execution technology'

that the institutional DD team is saying this to the investment committee or there is actually another entirely different reason?

Pick up a copy of "How to Read Literature Like A Professor" by Thomas C. Foster at your library. My AP Lit instructor had me read it almost a decade ago (after similar complaints) and it helped me enjoy required undergrad literature classes much more - gives a practical, fair insight into literary analysis.
