I really will get on to talking further about how much we should be afraid or not afraid that our dry cleaning (or more specifically, the perchloroethylene emissions from our dry cleaning) is going to affect our health, and whether or not we should stop taking fish oil capsules (see me in the comments) because the Manteel Justice Foundation has a bug up its ass about PCB contamination in marine fish oils. But for now, I’m sharing this neat post about data analysis – it’s oriented towards market analytics using the Star Trek red shirt-guy-who-dies-in-each-episode trope (may all Wall Street bankers, stock traders and market analysts have unsatisfactory sexual relationships forever for ruining our economy), but is a useful tale for how to analyze data in general.
Here’s hoping that blogging resembling real environmental health science resumes soon. My apologies for subjecting you to this. I’m recovering from a head cold, and I’m overly preoccupied with the day job, and both seem to impede me from thinking very clearly.
