An issue here is judy appears to equate anomoly with "statistical significant anomoly" perhaps because she has little under standing of statistics and the term "statistical significance." I have further defined what level of statistical significance I am referring to in three or more posts: 4-5 standard deviations from the average over a 90-360 day period. Judy appears to make no distinction between some oddity -- any old an anomoly, and the above: 4-5 standard deviations from the average over a 90-360 day period. That is why I have been saying there is a huge semantic chasm here. If some parties of the dsicussion have no clue as to technical and precise terms being used in the discussion, its doomed to failure. ------------------------ Yahoo!
