Three! Three pages in the book! Four! Four pages in the book!

Ad hominey? we cookin something bot?

The way I see it this: not only did his IMness get
GM Adorjan's statistics all screwed up, but GM
Adorjan himself was apparently working with bogus,
or partial stats. himself. In order to get meaningful
stuff out, you gotta put in complete, uncorrupted
data. And what is even more important is this:
you don't start off with a theory that Black is OK
and THEN try and justify it using statistics. Duh!

You start off with (complete) statistics, and from
these you try to extrapolate meaning -- not the
other way around. The meaning should flow *from*
the source, like a river, to whatever sea is in its
path. And always downhill, going with the data,
not working against it to help any pet theory.
