In any published paper the methodology and the type of statistical analysis along with the rational for that particular analysis used is discussed in the paper. My understanding is that Markovsky wanted to see the raw data that was "crunched" by that analysis. I view Markovsky attitude toward the ME has healthy skepticism considering its radical nature and MIU's refusal to share raw data was based more on the weakness of the ME than on any bias on his part. They were concerned that the raw data could be crunched to show no ME. And their concern was correct. > > > > > > > ------------------------ Yahoo!
