For someone who is a stickler for rigorous claims, you're sure playing fast and loose with the rules on this one.
Well, I *was* careful to make sure to present it as just my impression, not a demonstrated conclusion. And my main point is that the person who originally made the "who's ahead" claim doesn't have the actual totals either.
Where did I run afoul of "the rules"?
does not seem to me to fulfill the rules of evidence required elsewhere on this thread. :-)
Cheers!
