Worth Remembering
The BBC Magazine has a nice article, How one in 1,000 can equal 50%, about a different form of “framing”.
I have mentioned this sort of thing several times when addressing political claims, especially regarding the difference between average and median. With all of the political chatter going on over stimulus and budgets, as well as discussions about the flu problem, you have to look for people comparing apples and codfish, because they couldn’t prove their point if they tried their normal apples and oranges.
