Alex,
Well, if this were a laboratory I'd tend to agree with you. However, since I cannot prove anything I did yesterday via the scientific method I guess it didn't exist. <g> Actually, I'd say that the scientific method is flawed as it cannot be used in some cases particularly time-based stuff like personal experiences. Personal experience is IMO perfectly acceptable as long as you understand the limitations and in that case I'd give you 1/2 point <g> as it can still go both ways in many cases. However the aggregation of personal experience, which is what I was doing in my case, seems perfectly acceptable in this case.
Regardless, thanks for the thoughts...
Best,
DD
