  So, Sandle is proposing to use a statistical procedure he hasn't
ever seen used, on a body of data he isn't familiar with, isn't sure
whether it should be used or not, correct?

  Actually, you dumb idiot, I said Pearsons product-moment correlation
is the basis of virtually all multivariate statistical techniques.

  On top of everything else, you're not listening to what people tell

  Fuck off, you're an enormous waste of my time, Sandle. Perhaps we'll
