I didn’t call you a liar. It was more of a statement that I don’t believe statistics handed out to me because they can be manipulated to mean anything. Statistics are meaningless.

I recommended a book that is very instructive regarding the reliability of statistics so that you don’t think that they really mean anything.

I do see how you could have interpreted it that way, but that was not the intent. If the post gets pulled, it gets pulled.

You should read the book anyway so you don’t get mislead by statistics again.

RM — again, a case of finessing the rules. The poster in question sends an email to another freeper’s post saying “How to Lie with Statistics “. That’s a direct personal attack.
