something we give back...


http://www.truthout.org/issues_06/071707HB.shtml

I think this is more mainland related than Baja, and so I thought about putting it on off topic, but I thought that few people would see it there. If the article doesn't bring about discussion that is fine, maybe just something to read and think about.

In my argumentation and debate classes at San Diego State College (circa 1963) .... I learned that just about any statement can be supported through manipulation of the display of the data ... Not dissing, merly urging caution in the use of statistics. :cool: CaboRon

This is especially true today regarding environmental issues, i.e. bought off experts and manipulation by certain media with a consistant political agenda. Furthermore, any viewpoint can be manipulated by word and phrase juxtopositioning and contextual framing.
