Certainly you can have correlation without causation, but can you cite an example of causation without correlation?

The examples you cite are post selection.

Thank you for your reply!

Certainly you can have correlation without causation, but can you cite an example of causation without correlation?

It occurs to me that not all causations or correlations would be observable - contemplation and subconsciousness for instance might have to reach a certain threshhold before the person is aware of it.

I'm interested in both your thoughts on the subject...
