Mainly Stats stuff

Some different articles mostly involving stats.

Firstly a study on male bisexuality.
Neither Andrew Gelman's blog ( it is Dan who writes not Andrew) nor  Statschats are impressed.
Next Statschat on Bogus polls. It is about the Kiwis but valuable nevertheless.

Since we are talking about politics here is Andrew Gelman responding well to Nate Silver's criticisms on polling for the US Presidential; election.
Now he writes about RA Fisher. Yes he was a racist but was that what he made his stats reputation on?

Our own Kevin Bonham on Essential's response to the massive polling failure of the last election.- does its new 2PP work?

And now for something completely different. Just how good is Peer Review. No Hesitations thinks it (rightly) over-rated.
