I too do not read them. I tried the first few times they were posted, but all too often all that was presented in the links was a lot of opinion wrapped up in dubious statistics.
As an engineer with over 35 years of experience I know that data integrity is essential before any analytics can take place; garbage in / garbage out. It is also the mark of poor scholarship to begin with a conclusion and then selectively gather information to support it.
I tried also, but the way in which they are presented makes it difficult reading, especially on a computer.
daniel, I am sure you are sincere in wanting to relate what you believe is the truth to me, and I honestly do no wish to offend you or impune your scholarship in any way, but it is not a method which I can comfortably read.
