When I was in college my economics teacher showed us how he was able to take a single spreadsheet and manipulate the statistical data to any outcome he chose.
The same data could be manipulated to show a positive statistical output, a negative statistical output, and everything in between.
Just fodder for the unwashed masses.How can you have any cookies if you don't drink your milk?

Some people use statistics as a drunkard uses a lamppost, more for support, than for illumination.

Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.
