Dear Gabriel,
From our favourite Mario's post, i gleaned that he (Mario) was trying to
score some "brownie" points is rt. wing humour.
On he third anniversary of the joke he has stoutly defended on goan fora et
elsewhere 9no doubt), he sure is in need of some "humour".
That is why I had ignored his "rusty" comment.
I hope he Mario isn't claiming tht he knows even the basics of statistics.
good wishes
jc
