The free lunch program was made to help families financially by not forcing them to pay for lunch every day. If this wasn't intentional, then you sure did make it sound damn well like it was. |

I'm not saying I doubt the data because of counter evidence, I am saying I doubt the data because it has no additional studies to back it up. This is how hypothesis become theories in science: replicability. Until it's corroborated or disproven I'll just be skeptical. |

This is how hypothesis become theories in science: replicability. --- End quote --- how do you 'additional studies' a program that records its own statistics and publishes them online? when you get a police report on a murder, do you immediately doubt its credibility because there are no other additional studies on that exact case? how could there be any additional evidence- they're the only people who are responsible and can produce the evidence in the first place. Law and statistics are not science. When someone publishes data, there is not an obligatory 'second data' to prove it. --- Quote from: Red Spy on February 24, 2017, 02:27:50 AM ---Oh damn you got me there!!!
