QuoteOriginally posted by: exotiqQuoteOriginally posted by: nsandeI am already married so I will have little use for it either way.Note use of the word "little" as opposed to "no". :-)That is easily explained. "Little" refers to my expected utility. I guess that this in turn could be written as the product of the probability that I will become single and the usefullness of the forum. The annual divorce rate in Oslo is 16,9 (1997-2002), i.e. 16,9 divorces per 1000 married couples. in other words, there is a 1,7% probability that I will have use for the singles forum within one year. In fact, the probability is slightly higher since the statistics show that a marriage is most likely to end in divorce after 5 to 9 years. We have been married for 5 years. Regards,Niclas
