Working a few "Increased work capacity across broad time and modal domains" into your argument and wearing tribal tatts seems to help as well. |

I like my pie analogy, and it's just as valid, but tastier.
Quote:
If I put this pie on end, and spin in, it forms a volume of space similar to a sphere.
Now look. I've eaten a piece of pie.
When we spin the pie again, the area cut out of the volume of the sphere equals fitness.

And you invented it all. Make sure to use obscure words in such an opaque way, no one is really sure what you mean
