I will have to disagree with you about this. I regularly look for
particular correlations, and the data continually adjust my attitude.
Frequently I find correlations where I expected to find none, I find
no correlation where I was sure that one existed. In short, it is
not as easy to create scientific findings out of thin air as you present.
