Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Aye - 'statistics' is a bad word for me: I'm teaching a research methods course right now, and lots of research methods courses are basically stats courses, but this one definitely ain't...

And Neil - Cookie Monster *used* to only eat cookies, but we're in the naughties, so he eats salad and fruit and vegies now too :rolleyes:

Cookie Monster eats cookies, plates, letters, veggies, fruits, and...numbers! I've seen him do it!

As for statistics, that makes 3 of us here at Club A. Any more?

I wish I could find a really good hairdresser that I don't have to take out a second mortgage to pay the bill.

I'll probably end up auditing a stats course again at some point, just to get up to speed... I think I actually did pretty well in it when I did it, but that was... hmm, 20 years ago next year!

On an off topic -

The problem with stats is that they change the goal posts. I took a subject on research methods in psychology about 15 years ago and got thru - and in the medical journals they use a pile of different terms now. Odds ratios and confidence intervals etc.....why can't we go back to the good old black and white days when something was either true or false

I'd just like to say two things.

1. This is my 2001st post!!!

2. I've just realized that I can sing our national anthem (Advance Australia Fair) to the tune of the theme from Gilligan's Island. Boy, are my friends and I going to have some fun next Australia Day.

There! How much further off topic can you get?

Congrats on getting to 2000 - and the AAF thing sounds a bit like the trouble I had trying to talk French to a patient in Karachi and all that would come out were the Urdu words!!

When I was in American Literature, my AM Lit professor told us that almost all of Emily Dickinson's poetry can be sung to "The Yellow Rose of Texas." So now that's all I hear if I read her poetry.

The day after this, two of my classmates came in and sang Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" to the tune of Suicide is Painless (the M*A*S*H theme song). Another poem ruined!
