[Informatics] Another vital research hypothesis

[John Schwartz]

May wife and I are just back from a long weekend, and advantage of retirement, she asked an idle question as we passed through Shepparton which could also form the basis for a hypothesis.  Can you tell the size of a town by the number of McDonalds?

Any such question could be reworded as a hypothesis.

Academic rancour and research bitchiness, and it brings up the interesting concept of statistical significance.

This may help you or your kids to devise a hypothesis or two involving bananas in pyjamas, or pencil-nosed men from the moon.

For our younger readers, I refer to Mr Squiggle.
Actually, grumpy Mr Blackboard was my favourite.
He inspired me to be a teacher.
