obesity in kids

Hmm, good news for ds as I didn't start until I was 15. But means I have no excuse for being porky. Bum. It is still all my fault!

Correlation does not equal causality.

thats what i thought vim, but was annoyed at the spin the media wants to put onit. lets blame the mothers for something else.

If the journalists had any level of training in statistics, or causality, or common sense they'd have nothing to write about.

Every newspaper science column would look like the \link{http://www.badscience.net/?p=404/Bad Science} column from the Guardian, and we wouldn't get stories about white bread/breastfeeding/spoons giving you cancer.

!!!!Links!!!

I diddn't get that the 'media' were trying to put blame on mothers in that piece. That was just a report
