on merit.ego doesnt come into the picture. Our
transactions are zero-based so there is no history
sheet, Different people compete, then they have a
discussion, one solution is accepted, one person
wins, they smile and go out to lunch. Because the
group of people is very smart, there has to be a
uniform distribution of wins. There are no overt or
covert prejudices
