Trying to bat down the White House’s “association” between acetaminophen and autism with “correlation does not imply causation” is losing the rematch the way you lost the title.It never occurred to me that a lot of people don’t know what correlation means and do not want to know. To me, it is not at all “fancy talk.” But I think it actually may be.
So we have to adjust to this. How? I, unfortunately, am not the one to tell you, except that we need to make education actually good. I do not know what to do about adults that are committed to being stupid as their identity.
