Hola!
Sorry for going off-topic, but here are
something I found on the web
yesterday - an explanation of
statistics in poetic form:
First, you see your data for what they seem to be
Then, you ask them for the truth - are you what you seem to me?
You see with broad expanse
you ask with narrowed power
you see and ask and see
and ask and see... and ask
With brush you paint the possibilities
with pen you scribe the probabilities
For in pictures we find insight
while in numbers we find strengt
(author is probably Forrest Young)
