Oh, I am sure Jay that it is academically defensible; and it is probably assailable as well. Most likely they did not attempt to set up a controlled study. My guess is that they married statisticians, modelers and other eggheads, mathematiced it up, and drew conclusions.

Who knows, it could even be right!

But one thing is certain - I will never understand how they did it.
