Your departure from reality is truly amazing. Maybe you clicked on the wrong thread?

I'm liking that part very much.

Being able to discriminate between the two seems to be a lost art these days.

Sorry for bringing us off-topic (wait, what is it this silly thread is about anymore?). Ah, don't most jobs (or any other activity!) roll that way - sound fascinating in the abstract, though the daily nitty-gritty not so much. Sorry about the wet and the sea-sick! Yuck!

I spend nearly a quarter of my research course on statistics, recognizing bad ones, how to correctly use them, and ever reinforcing the idea that correlation is not causation.

If I was wrong, then this thread would only be 10 comments long and one page.

It was created to bash Men, IMO, to no end. Now the tone is trying to simmer down from all out crazy to just not so crazy...lol

Ha! re: the bolded - a lesson that never gets old. Your course content makes me irrationally happy.
