Latest theory lands on Portuguese AG's desk

[Mr Gray]

Yes, it’s fairly obvious you don’t.

I do...but I think my post would have lost its edge if I had referred to the arithmetic mean...I used the term most understand

If you meant arithmetic mean then you would probably be wrong.

I don't really  care... It doesn't affect the point I was making... Perhaps you should start a thread on averages

It just shows that throw away remarks can often be flawed.

It wasn't a throw away remark.... It was a little lighthearted entertainment... And it wasn't flawed

So, anyway, those tapas doctors are allegedly intelligent and yet look at the stupidity in their decision-making regarding their children's safety. The arithmetic and averages are just a deflection away from the thread.

Davel has no 'evidence' of an intruder/abductor. IF he had, he would have given it to the OG or PJ.  Or if he was shy he could just say it in this open room and someone else could pass it on ,on his behalf. However, we can only just read he BELIEVES the McCanns story.

Again repeating: there IS no evidence of an intruder. No Eye witness of abductor leaving the apartment with MBM through a window.

The diffference between mean, average and median?

There are only 2 f's in difference!

I spell cod with an F.

Bearing in mind that IQ and intelligence are not the same thing.

You are wrong about that.  In fact, IQ and knowledge are not the same thing.

Can We Stop Confusing IQ With Intelligence?
https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/moral-landscapes/201212/can-we-stop-confusing-iq-intelligence

From "Mainstream Science on Intelligence" (1994), an op-ed statement in the Wall Street Journal signed by fifty-two researchers (out of 131 total invited to sign):[6]

A very general mental capability that, among other things, involves the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly and learn from experience. It is not merely book learning, a narrow academic skill, or test-taking smarts. Rather, it reflects a broader and deeper capability for comprehending our surroundings—"catching on," "making sense" of things, or "figuring out" what to do.[7]

intelligent people tend to have a high IQ...the terms may not be the same but are closely related
