Are you starting to doubt your doubt re my doubt yet?[/QUOTE]Not in the slightest. I stand by my statement about the compatibility of the posts which report historical records and expected future behaviour under a particular statistical model.

We two (and William etc) know whether we are taking the P or being serious (usually simultaneously).

Amusing as many of UncWilly's posts are, I'm not sure that he (or even
Crandall) quite appreciates the irrelevance of historical data when it
comes to "Predicting M48".
(note the rare "staying on topic" bit)

BTW how is 10metreh doing these days?

[QUOTE=davieddy;271448]the irrelevance of historical data when it
comes to "Predicting M48".[/QUOTE]Exactly. That's why I stand by my evaluation of the situation. Uncwilly's and your statements are compatible because they are conveying truths about two essentially uncorrelated phenomena.

Infamy, Infamy...

I don't think many here would consider a lack of frivolity
to be one of my chief faults.

Besides, I find math fun, and certainly discuss it frequently
over coffee or something stronger.

I assume that's the Carry On (?) line. Always makes me giggle.

Nah.
We haven't heard of Frankie Howard this side of the pond since
Roman Times.

PS If Paul wishes to argue the toss, I will [B]stand [/B]corrected.

PPS I wouldn't put that line past Kenneth Williams.

Well at least I covered all bases.

Meantime, if you ever wondered why Billie Holiday and Lester young
got together [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTruL8h83RM]Listen to this[/url]
