what do you think the odds are of abduction in this case?

Look now, you two.  I have had enough of this.

I'm not the one calling another poster a liar.. I'm not the one breaking forum rules

[Mr Gray]

Did I say that?  I would never say "they should be believed simply because they are regarded as experts".

I will look at your post again and quote it

[ShiningInLuz]

I haven't told any lies on this forum and you should not accuse me of lying

Of course you have.

You invented a fake Portuguese car for your son, in order to try to 'win' an argument as silly as the one you are trying to 'win' now.

You later admitted you had lied.

Remember?

I think anyone with an ounce of sense would realise thst was a wind up not a lie... So are you now calling me a liar

It was very definitely a lie.

Consequently, when you claim you have never lied on the forum, that too is a known lie.

So that's at least two times when you have knowingly lied in order to win an argument.

You would do better to let the matter drop.

So once more you accuse me of lying. I would say you would have to be very very stupid not to realise I was having a bit of fun... And as you didn't realise what does that say about you
But carry on... It appears accusing posters of lying is now acceptable

It most certainly is when such a poster admits to having lied.

Guys, please can we quit all this liar stuff and just focus on the facts of the case as we perceive them.  Thanks.

Then remove the posts accusing  me of lying

I will remove any post where posters refer to one another as lying after my post above.

Medics discuss statistics everyday... It's part if their training.
Expert witnesses quote statistics regularly..

His mistake was medical... Not statistical

It was statistical as well.

[Mr Gray]

It was statistical as well.

His mistake was that he ignored the fact that there might be a genetic link to the deaths... Apart from that his statistics were basically correct... So his mistake was medical not statistical

His error was that he used statistical techniques applicable to random events when it had long been suspected that they weren’t random.

No more name calling.
