I think that Prof. Black has a good point here. Even at NYU where some wealthy students attend, I've always had the feeling that most students were richer in poo (particular the bull poo type) than mere money. Even so, use two-tailed tests of significances if relevant -- the perception of excessive student poo may just be due to the availability heuristic. ;-) -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.
