Dave, I had seen the Stackoverflow post before so I was surprised when I clicked the link here and got there, because your title misrepresents the question.

I thank you for posting it here because it has indeed led to interesting discussion. But please consider not editorializing titles in a way that can lead to flame wars.

I didn't think I was editorializing, and I apologized after it became clear I had misinterpreted the author. I knew the concept was controversial and interesting, so I posted it (and it was both interesting and controversial).

I'm afraid AccurateFuturePrediction.hs doesn't compile on OSX due to the size limits, so my ability to avoid this sort of gaffe in the future is limited.
