I guess you did. If you had invested $1,000 in the '80s you would have improved your net worth to the tune of $450,000 today ... or you might be so old you really don't give a hoot.

Not so. Research NUNC PRO TUNC.

hoots are for kids.

hoot (n.)

mid-15c., "cry of dissatisfaction or contempt," from hoot (v.). Meaning "a laugh, something funny" is first recorded 1942. Slang sense of "smallest amount or particle" (the hoot you don't give when you don't care) is from 1891.

"A dod blasted ole fool!" answered the captain, who, till now, had been merely an amused on-looker. "Ye know all this rumpus wont do nobuddy a hoot o' good--not a hoot." ["Along Traverse Shores," Traverse City, Michigan, 1891]

WTF is that?

Here is a hint:

ONLY THE DEAD LACK THE ABILITY TO ALTER THE PAST

Nunc Pro Tunc

[Latin, Now for then.] When courts take some action nunc pro tunc, that action has retroactive legal effect, as though it had been performed at a particular, earlier date.

The most common use of nunc pro tunc is to correct past clerical errors, or omissions made by the court, that may hinder the efficient operation of the legal system. For example, if the written record of a trial court's judgment failed to correctly recite the judgment as the court rendered it, the court has the inherent power to change the record at a later date to reflect what happened at trial. The decision, as corrected, would be given legal force from the time of the initial decision so that neither party is prejudiced, or harmed, by the error. The purpose of nunc pro tunc is to correct errors or omissions to achieve the results intended by the court at the earlier time.

Part of being alive is not being bound by errors and omissions of past courts.

I thought it were all a ziero0 sum game?

Apple reminds me of western digital before U.S. dissolved AT&T.

that was when back when .gov had a thought on things.

It is but you have to be aware of the location of the ziero0. If it happens to be in the numerator you are home free. If it falls in the denominator the sky is the limit.
