We really needed a study on this...

Hm... I thought I replied to this last night...

Oh yeah... forgot, I was watching Sex and the City and knocking up some girl.

Friends? that show was a bunch of thirty year olds posing as late twenties adults? Maybe I missed the subliminal message of Ross's monkey.

They were talking about it on the rap station on sirius and they all disagreed with the study... funny thing was that the next guest on the show was a porn star

I would think Palin would be an expert and would be a good chair for this Study.

We need a study on how college graduates cannot distinguish between corrollary and causation, two of the simplest and most basic concepts in logic and statistics.

And then we should do one on how people who can't distinguish between these things always seem to confuse the two when it comes to advancing their own sense of morality, in particular.

how are corollary and causation basic statistical concepts?

I mean correlation, if that helps.

And I said logic AND statistics.

When A goes up, B goes up. Simple minded folk, after seeing the pattern a few times, assume that A causes B. In reality, it is often the case that A and B are both caused by something else.

See this: Correlation does not imply causation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oh, I fully understand the concepts, just wasn't sure how corollary tied and don't see causation as a statistical concept.

Plus, I enjoyed the irony of you being wrong in being all teachy on us.

Well, its not the first time. Perhaps there is a causal relationship between people posting silly studies like this and me losing my mind and feeling obliged to point out the obvious, which is then lost on me.
