I can honestly say, whilst I love all my substack authors in relation to covid, yours is one of the easiest scientific based writings for a layman to comprehend....I always get interested when I see a Jessica Rose article....well done....Happy new year.....God bless....🙏

Meryl Nass was interested in a crosspost on words, which was an instigation to finish my draft on this: https://thirdparadigm.substack.com/p/when-words-die-worlds-die. But I think it's yours she should crosspost. It really goes to the heart of how we're being deceived by changing the meaning of words, often to their opposite.

And before I started doing Substack, I had these YT episodes on Bret and Heather:

Thank YOU Jessica.

I'm thanking all your thanks so you will know how thankful I am for your presence on this earth.❤

Ps: when you began your tobogganing story, I thought it was going to end with "and that's how I first learned how to stand up on a surf board... " 😉

I am in the same club. Jessica is a special person. I love her scientific work which has enriched my understanding but even more important is her natural love of others that comes out in her writing in so many ways. We are blessed.

I completely agree. I still can’t figure out many of the detailed charts, but Jessica always summarizes in a clear and understandable way for a person like me--who usually shuts down when trying to understand “science.”

Doc, what the frak are "P" numbers? How does one read them in scientific publications? Or rather, is there some kind of instruction I can find online for reading all sorts of scientific publishing? Can someone do a seminar???

I was asking the same thing. I learned about statistics at khanacademy.org. It's free lessons for high school level math. Very helpful and you'll understand the P values (and more) if you go thru the lessons. IMHO. Good luck!
