Don't ask me, Sawz, why some supposed learned people do stuff that is counter to their chosen area of study but George Mason seems to have more than it's share...

I mean, there are a hand full of supposed learned climatologists who either don't believe in global warming or that man's burning of so much stuff has anything to do with it...

This study/poll falls into that category...

Now, Sawz ol' buddy... I have explained it to you from an academically accurate position... I happened to have bothered to learn statistics in college and that is why I *generally* don't use polls to make my points here in Mudcat... Yes, there are a few occasions where I have but, by in large, stay away from them because of that first day in Stats 201 where Professor Snellings proved that 1 = 2 as an example of how folks can manipulate statistics...

So there is nothing else that can be said... If you insist on keeping your mind closed to logic and academically accepted practices, then fine...

I learned a long time ago when I was a social worker that you can't have logical discussion with mentally ill people when they don't wnat to hear it... Like we used to say, "How many social workers does it take to change a light bulb?"

Answer: "One, but the light bulb must want to be changed"...

Bye for this thread...
