“… programs, men and women seemed to have a fairly similar [ rate ] of admission.” | “He who wishes to travel fast, travels alone” describes, in part, just why the Lie makes it around the world before Truth ties its boot laces (loves me some Twain, do I.) Too much work to publish a full page of standard deviations, T-tests and such, wherein resides the truth of the matter. Gimme one number, right up top, garnished with my take, and we move on. | BTW, what do you have against semi-colons?
