“'The Simpsons' obviously is a huge success, and Fox has nothing to do with its success, with its creative success, and as a result they don't really like the show. They don't like 'The Simpsons' at Fox.” ShowsResultsCreativeHugeFoxes Author:Matt Groening
“The NSF study projected a shortfall of 675,000 scientists and engineers without considering the future demand for such individuals in the marketplace. It simply observed a decline in the number of 22-year-olds and projected that this demographic trend would result in a huge shortfall. This could be termed the supply-side theory of labor market analysis. But making labor market projections without considering the demand side of the equation doesn't pass the laugh test with experts in the field.” YearsIndividualSidesResultsNumbersLaughingStudyFieldsTheoryHugeDemandLaborTestsScientistAnalysisExpertsTrendsDeclineEngineersConsideringEquationsProjectionMarketplaceDemographicsScientists And Engineers Author:Howard Wolpe
“The news media reported the $250 million as an unthinkably huge waste of money and proclaimed that something was wrong with NASA. The result was an investigation and a congressional hearing. Not to defend failure, but $250 million is not much more than the cost to produce Kevin Costner's film flop Waterworld.” FilmResultsMillionsMediaProduceHugeCostWasteNewsHearingExplorationInvestigationSpace ExplorationNasaKevinNews Media Author:Neil deGrasse Tyson
“Another agricultural trend of growing concern is the increased nutrient content of coastal waters resulting from fertilizer runoff in agricultural regions. Augmented by urban sewage discharge in some situations, this results in huge algal blooms, which, as they die and decay, deplete the oxygen content in the water, leading to the death of the fish.” DiesWaterResultsSituationGrowingHugeConcernEnvironmentalFishesRegionsTrendsPollutionDecayUrbanOxygenDischargeNutrientsFertilizerCoastalSewage Book:Vital Signs 1999-2000: The Environmental Trends That Are Shaping Our Future Source: Vital Signs 1999-2000: The Environmental Trends That Are Shaping Our Future
“I worry more about the marketing that's taken hold since the 70s. The Jazz era, the Swing era, those were huge. Entire decades were named for music. In the 1940s - after World War II - changes in taxation, ballrooms closing, people moving to the suburbs, and the onset of target marketing and the confusion of commerce with art caused some things to happen as a result that have taken us away from jazz and what jazz offers us.” PeopleWorldArtWarHappensMovingResultsWorryTakenHugeOffersJazzMarketingDecadesConfusionErasWar Of The WorldsTargetWorld War IiSwingsWorld War ICommerceTaxationClosingSuburbsBallroom Author:Wynton Marsalis
