I dunno; my doctor says my dark skin correlates with a lower risk of melanoma, but that my dyplastic mole correlates with a higher risk. Maybe that means my risk profile evens out. > THe point raised was that blacks were, on the average, less intellient that > whites. No. The *question* asked was why was Dr. Watson immediately assumed to be racist because he said there was data suggesting that Africans (no skin color mentioned) were less intelligent than Europeans. The only really good response to THAT question was by someone who called me Hitler, but then pointed out that Dr. Watson does have a controversial history of alleged bigotry. That doesn't mean his statement is false, but it casts doubt on any data he says he saw. And before some points out that he, later on, said there was no data I would point out that if the reaction he got was anything like the reaction here, then I wouldn't blame him for "mis-remembering" the data. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Get involved in the latest ColdFusion discussions, product development sharing, and articles on the Adobe Labs wiki. http://labs/adobe.com/wiki/index.php/ColdFusion_8 Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:245564 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
