Or perhaps they had to listen to the Mary Poppins "Step in Time" song one too many times and thought "To *insert bad word here if you like* with it".

Well, I guess this thread proves:
"90% of all statistics are made up" *insert sarcastic smiley here*

ie, you can make numbers prove anything you want to, that is why we hear conflicting statistics regarding things like health all the time.

All I can say is "Thank goodness for all those alternate dimension numbers". It was getting kinda hard to believe this was a thread about "interesting statistics" what with the total hitherto lack of digits, decimals, and percentages (ie right up until the dimension numbers started appearing).

And just quoting from IR's opening post of the thread :

1) "I have heard several times that"
2) "However I have heard"
3) "I'm not suggesting anything"

Have you thought of a career in news commentary - there is a certain news station out there just waiting to snap this sort of talent right up - or so I have heard [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Foxmania strikes again!!

I believe The Hierophant probably hit closest. It was just an oberservation. Would it make you happier if I changed the topic to 'An Intresting Obervation' (witch I cant do now because of the edit time thingy).

As a matter of fact I did do some searching, a very quick scam on some search results and it did up my claim (But I realize thats not really 'researching'), I will do some research latter today when I have moretime.

Another interesting statistic. The government spent three times as much money investigating Bill Clinton's sex life then they have spent investigating the lapses that lead to 9/11.

To clear somethings up, I didnt intent for this to be a full fledge debate, just two statements that I have heard time and time again that contridict each other that I found rather Ironic.

But if you see a point in debating it, you go right ahead and do that.
