Hi Earl,

Let' see - this is a study done by a group of highly educated people at 
Harvard, one of the world's most prestigious education facilities because 
they are world renown for their accuracy and bi-partisanship - who do these 
kinds of studies for a living.

No offense Earl - but you - who by the way has never been paid to conduct 
such a study, dismisses it out of hand based on what ....  Your opinion? 
"jump to conclusion??...."  Earl, you can't possibly make an
assessment like 
that because you don't have access to their research metrics or their 
conlusion formulas.

Sorry Earl - but you haven't the background to stand on any foot on your 
conclusion, and I seriously doubt anyone here does.  Other research 
institutions are basing much of their research on this issue specifically 
modeled after the Harvard Study.  So for you to state, "..would get laughed 
out of a class on research methodology..."  has already been proven to be a 
mistake.  You're in good company though, I remember as a kid looking at my 
8088 hard drive and saying, "I'll never fill up this 10mb".
