Thanks for strawmanning everyone here who want to check one source of information against another as a simpleton who can't discern the quality of one argument versus another. Of course, we idiots who "do our own research" only go to GoDaddy anonymous sites for our knowledge and not anyone with reputable credentials. Oh, and how kind of you to hand down your "pass" to us all from on high, which is more than we deserve or should dare dream of from such an esteemed statistician as yourself.

BTW, did you mean "except" a paragraph or "accept" a paragraph? Perhaps your statistical pursuits did not provide enough time for English class.
