So what are you doing now?

You have assumed that some variable is strongly connected to some vaguely defined concept. Then without defining the mapping between that and your sample set (just because A correlates with B doesn't mean it's 1:1). Then you look like you are just assuming that the R is .99?

Ever hear of showing your work?

you simply lack any basic knowledge of statistics. Sorry.
