Sorry, haven't had a chance to chime in - you know work and all. Well I never saw this debate coming:-P But we haven't even debated variations in admission criteria across the colleges and specific majors and how that varies with early decision and regular admission.

SAT to GPA correlation has an r=0.64.

Well, to a chemistry type, that sucks. As a biology kinda guy, I'd publish that. And I've seen social science type publish stuff between .2 and .4.

That's funny Al because I get a much bigger headache when the debate has to do with who should be rated where in the polls and who should play more and who will win this or that........:-))

appletinis work wonder for back pains :-) haven't tried them on headaches yet though... of course, this would have to be made by a bartender that probably isn't located in ithaca since they don't seem to give you any alcohol in a so called "mixed drink" :-(

But there are surely a large supply of apples!

Yeah, they must not, because every time I see you and Melissa at Dunbar's, you're both stone cold sober. :-P

Try a carbomb or four. I think that will solve your alcohol issue.

That is my point. Some of the regressions used as support in the social science are laughable at best. I wouldn't put my name on anything with r=0.64 after graduation.

Dunbar's is one of the FEW places that actually puts alcohol in those drinks...

My personal favorite is white russians at the Chariot. I have no complaints about how they're made, and they're served in pint glasses!

Although they've apparently lost their Irish Wake recipe. ::uhoh::

Completely OT anecdote: while at my favorite Richland, WA (don't ask) watering hole, I had a guy belly up next to me and tell the World's Best Evil Barmaid he wanted that drink with, you know, vodka and Kalhua in it, and she made him a White Russian. After he had gone, I asked WBEB how she knew he didn't mean a Black Russian, and she replied that he was an idiot who didn't know what he wanted. (I'm not sure what the moral of the story is.)
