Perhaps Amazon Should Review It's "Suggestions" Software

[Harry Longshanks]

Because I really don't think I fit this demographic based on my previous purchase of "Snow Sense: A Guide to Evaluating Snow Avalanche Hazard".

Don't say that!

I am pretty sure Amazon use the predictive analytics software that I write!

Anyone here a recruitment consultant?!

That's hilarious. Usually Amazon has my tastes pretty much nailed. It gets a little skewed when I buy gifts for family and friends... but other than that, not bad.

Oh come on now. You know you are interested in Crystal the Snow horse. I mean that book and the book about avalanches have to be pretty close right?? Maybe Crystal can recognize avalanche danger. You could take her along and she could warn you of a possible avalanche.

That's crazy that the software is that far off.

Also I think what Harry is failing to add, is that the only reason the software is out is because he already has a copy of Crystal the snow pony, so there is no way he'd want to buy it again!

Hey Harry, can I borrow your Crystal the snow pony(magic pony carrousel) when your done with it. I think flame is my favorite.

Well, I guess I should have seen that coming, eh?

(And I have "My Little Pony", not "Crystal the Snow Pony". And it's an action figure, not a book.)
