Check out this Cancer link which ends up with a Car graph overkill.

I've never seen charts and grahs like this before. Interesting. I may be running a tad low on I.Q. I really didn't understand alot of it. Check it out.

1) That buying an S54 ///M Roadster would be easier than swapping an S54 engine into a pre-S54 body, and
2) That you "may be running a tad low on I.Q."

Congrats, that's two in a row for you today!

I must admitt the charts are a bit confusing the way they are drawn and swapping elements around. I guess I can see what it means , but really is that info presented in the right fashion? I think I could have done a better job. ( even with my low I.Q. ) 134 last test. Not that great but it gets me from A to B.

Maybe in the next life I'll be a Laywer. GRIN

From my reading, the article is not intended to give the best representation of cancer data. Rather, it is intended to compare different tables of the same data to see which give the best representation of that data. In such an article, some tables are going to be better, and, of course, some are going to be worse. That's the whole point of the article.
