[Platt] According to a renowned academic, "Anyone can write anything."
[Arlo] I trust the numbers. Why don't you? The study was conducted long before Obama made his comments. What would be the incentive to lie? Why falsify the report? Do you have a counter study showing different numbers? In the previous case, I dismissed the premise that one writer's small view characterizes the entire Academy, and I draw that dismissal largely from years of my own experience not to mention many, many counter-studies. I also did not dismiss the notion that some bad examples could be found (they can in any human endeavor). In this case, I trust the numbers because there are no contrary studies, and I can think of no reason why the report should be biased (who would it benefit? the air-gauge industry?) And my limited experience checking my own and a few friend's tires supports the fact that many people don't check or regularly inflate their tires. So the report does not contradict my experience. So, counter-studies? Reasoned opinion as to why the report is biased/in error? Years of experience working in a tire shop? Or just more of your typical nonsense? (Bet- latter) Thanks for yet another display of "pride in their ignorance" (are you secretly working for the Obama camp? I mean, I am almost tempted to submit this exchange to our local newspaper.)
