Comment Re:What kind of lies? Statistics, there you go the (Score 1) 34

As a student of mathematics, I say that it is much more difficult to manipulate data to legitimately suggest different results that most would suspect. As they say, the numbers never lie. Of course, the statisticians might lie. Or the statistics might lie, in the sense that there is always a chance of a biased study. But the numbers never imply causation, merely correlation.
