History Trivia: No one outside Germany knows that "Churchill-quote" because it was made up by Nazi propaganda.
After a quick search I found lots of pages that attributed it to Churchill or Goebbels but apparently there is actually no record of one of them saying it.
Yep, that was a typo. Whoops
If you torture the data long enough, hey look at how low I got my p-value.
Cull the outliers..... Not low enough
Transform the data.... Not low enough
Normalise the data... Not low enough
Alter the model by adding random effects... Not low enough.
The major factors showed a trend towards significance.... therefore our hypothesis was met.
