Just because the data are interdependent I though we could use a test that actually took advantage of that feature for increased power. Adviser just wants a simple comparison of means with margin of error. Which I don't think is appropriate with categorical data, but hey, I'm not on the dissertation committee.

Oh, wait, this isn't the rant thread, is it?

Thank you to everyone who expressed concern about the wild weather we're having up here. No excitement in my immediate vicinity, but a few miles west of here there was quite the swath of devastation. Work was exciting yesterday. Sirens kept going off and loudspeakers were telling us that there was severe weather and we should "seek shelter immediately." So what do the oversized monkeys I work with do? Go out and stare at the sky. Heh.

Now, what was this about a t-shirt you were wanting? Or was it a picture of Queen Z fast-forwarded to 80+ years with a ratty unwashed shirt you were after? I don't normally take commissions of that type....
Have him check with his adviser to see if the distributions are heteroscadastic or homoscadastic.

I so wanted to work that into my dissertation defense but alas I ran out of steam and never finished the darn thing. No worries. 27 more working days until retirement.
