I don't believe in snowballs.

Hi Equal:

This one's real easy. One of our requirements to be part of the Two Plus Two team is the ability to win a nobel prize. Notice that only one of your two candidates is an official Two Plus Twoer.

Best wishes,
Mason

Then I guess if the poll is between David Sklansky and David Gross from the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, the answer is the same, since David Gross is not a 2+2er.

Bono will win one way before either of them!!! So there!

Hi sirio11:

We have high standards. The ability to win a Nobel Prize is only part of our requirements.

Clarkmeister is ahead of both these donks.

Hi Everyone:

I just want to point out one other thing. If someone came along with a really terrific poker book that they wanted us to publish and it would be a for sure terrific seller, but they weren't capable of winning a Nobel, we would have no choice but to inform them that we have our standards.

Best wishes,
Mason

In guess winning poker tournaments and competing at the highest levels are not part of your requirements to being a two + twoer, but as long as you know your estimated value in your 10-20 stud hi-lo game you are ok,
