Just to make sure several different things don't get conflated here (again): The issue L.B. and I have been discussing concerning the researchers not allowing Markovsky to have their data was in regard to a different study than the D.C. study you've been examining. Markovsky wanted data for the Jerusalem study. The raw data--the crime and other stats--used in *both* studies, however, were publicly available. That wasn't what Markovsky was asking for with regard to the Jerusalem study. He wanted to see the data produced by the researchers' analysis--what came out of the computer after the raw data had been input and run through whatever statistical routines they were using (as well, presumably, as the statistical routines themselves). This is not a case, in other words, where the raw data were available only to the researchers, as in, say, the clinical trials of a new drug; or a good bit of the other TM research on the effects of TM where subjects were brought into a lab to be tested or were asked to fill out questionnaires or whatever. ------------------------ Yahoo!
