$80 a freaking knife?!?!

Those things better debone a chicken and cut-up a cow by themselves for that price.

Loss of points for doubting the power of fine cutlery.

I have never once had the need or desire to slice a tomato in 3 seconds

I read it - way too vague, IMO. Reminds me of The Amazing Randi thing:

Randi performs this demonstration in, say, a classroom of college students. He announces that a horoscopist has done readings on each student. He calls their names and hands each one his or her particular horoscope. Each student is asked to read his own and is then asked to rate its accuracy on a scale of one to five, five being the best.

Almost all the scores are fives and the rest are fours. Then Randi asks the students to pass their horoscopes to the student behind them.

After a few seconds the students realize that every horoscope was worded exactly the same.

Then again, I'm a skeptic and 90% of the surfers out there would probably eat that stuff up

This one wasn't accurate at all. Sure, I could pull out a few of the aspects of it and say it applied at some point and time, but I could do the same with that page and almost everyone I know

well, here is the one for me and gonzo...i think it is pretty damn accurate and not very general at all
