Anotherdad has won many of my secret forum awards! I quoted the "plural of anecdote is not data" from a while ago, yet again, just now.....
You're both very kind, but I have to acknowledge that the "plural of..." quote isn't my invention. I can't remember where I picked it up from but it was many years ago, possibly even from my statistics teacher, and it is so often the perfect riposte to a promulgated
