Yeah man, you can get flashbacks from that sort of thing. Or so I've heard, I
wouldn't know. I mean, yeah I did do subjective priors once. But I didn't
inhale.

Man, once you get started you just can't stop.  Problem is you actually come to
decisions one day, the you realize that Uniform just ain't doing it anymore and
you need a heavy weighting hit.  I could tell you tales about colleagues strung
out on gammas, paralyzed with uncertainty, chains never converging, begging
for "just one more" parameter...

Phish!
