CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 14years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.
@iwrats and @snowy, best if possible to try to debunk your own theories.
In my own field just now there is an eminent educationalist who is experiencing a backlash from his meta analyses as he has combined many different studies with many different variables citing Cohen's d as a justification. This made him famous and governments have bought into his effect size argument. The mathematicians are raging.
Also if we are talking about 'poor people'/crime may well be more lead in the pipes of older, unmodernised house(?).
Suspect that kids chewing lead-paint painted window cills was always a minor issue.
The crime connection refuses to go away as even when the researchers are confronted with exceptions e.g. ed1's points they seek ways round the exceptions rather than abandoning the theory. This is human nature but not what Karl Popper would want but then Wittgenstein is supposed to have come at Karl with a poker.
