And the researcher published his study. It is available if you want to see it. I just don't feel like spending the money. However for you to sandbag his study based upon your own ignorance of the research is medieval, I think is the correct term...
I think that to accept his study without regarding even the most apparent signs of its biased nature is irresponsible, naive, and unethical. I don't feel like spending the money to look at the rest of his/her information either because I'm pretty convinced from the most basic information that it's flawed. All the other stuff is most likely fluff to add credibility to something that doesn't deserve it, in my opinion. That's unfortunately what many researchers do. I don't feel the need to better prove my hypothesis, however, when I have enough evidence to be convinced it's correct with adequate conviction and sincerity.


But what's to stop the manic tide,
The suicide of our own pride?
