Our models were very accurate in predicting the performance of small business entrepreneurs

On Monday, after about an hour of attorney type of hassling, we agreed on terms (which I’d failed to specify in my vision and weren’t as good as I would have liked) and my attorney drafted a 1.5 page letter agreement that we both signed.

When I told Dwight that I wanted to develop a system to model humans, he said, “Good luck” and left me to it. It actually took me 18 years and wasn’t realized until after I’d created and run a number of successful companies and had gone back to school to do a doctorate in business so as to learn what I’d been doing right and wrong. Unfortunately, I found I knew a lot more about business than my professors. One of the businesses that I had started was called Recognition Terminals, formed in 1969, and I’d intuitively used an early version of the Cybernetic Transposition techniques to almost instantly generate the $2.5 million in investment funding that I required.
