It is you who is unwilling to understand something that is taught in any elementary stats class.My incredulity is at YOUR apparent lack of understanding or unwillingness to understand even if you disagree.
What is a Representative Sample and Why is it Important?
It is not lack of understanding. I understand both the problems with what SF is doing and problems with your reasoning trying to excuse it by pretending it's a "study".In fact, I don't think it is lack of understanding on your part: you simply disagree and are unwilling to consider that there might be a valid method.
I was replying to what you wrote. LD made some errors in reading comprehension.Also: everyone makes assumptions, yourself included. You did in your response to me and certainly in your response to LD.
