        They aren't "sacrificed". And TB's "statistics" are merely predictions. by alcaray 2013-11-03 11:26:59
        
        Time out. by RobVG 2013-11-03 13:08:58
        
        Do you honestly think "clear numbers" will make an impression? by TB 2013-11-03 13:44:53

        Sorry, when you said "statistics" I thought you contested his numbers somehow. by alcaray 2013-10-31 22:25:01
        
        I contested Gruber's whole damn premise. by TB 2013-11-01 08:47:47
        
        jello-nailing = convincing your opposite number that you are right and he is wrong. by alcaray 2013-11-01 11:11:21
