Panic Watch!

STATS has compiled their list of the worst abuses of science and statistics over the past year. Highlights include...

• Baby Bottle Baloney: Why BPA water bottle scares are based on discredited research.
• Nitrite Children Exploitation: Why hot dogs aren't giving kids colon cancer, as shown in an outrageous commercial and reported in the media.
• Rainfall and Autism; The Sound of Statistical Noise: Why high levels of rain do not trigger autism, as suggested by news reports.
• Toxic Shower Curtain Smell: Why your shower curtain won't give you "serious health problems".

Give them a visit for more, including finger-growing pixie dust, midget Dubliners, and women "saying no" to science.
