This gets back to my original point that you have alot of criticisms of 'advanced stats' without a commensurate understanding.

Commensurate understanding of statistics? I was polite enough to explain to you why these stats are crap, and identified the very reasons they are junk, but the best you have is to come back and insult someone by telling them they don't have commensurate understanding of the subject, without any explanation of your own. That takes some real brass ones. I suspect you don't have the comprehensive knowledge of statistics you like to advertise and the claim of people not understanding them is nothing more than your defense mechanism to prevent that disclosure. If this isn't accurate, please prove otherwise by giving me that 600 level class in advanced statistics I must have missed in grad school. Save the obnoxious response and finally try to explain the validity of the work you place so much faith in.
