Hi, All --
A poll:
Am I being too picky about the use of the phrase, "highly significant" (or
something similar) when it's used to describe a very low-probability result?
It sort of drives me crazy; all I can hear is my graduate math stats teacher
threatening to kill us if we ever said something like that. I still read it in
papers and it's like fingernails on a chalkboard.
But perhaps I should just chill out?
What do you think?
