I've been thinking about the news lately, and reading the posts on HLP, and I've been thinking. Windmills cause Autism.
It's so simple. Look at the chart:

Do you deny a correlation? It's so obvious. How could anyone have missed that? I don't see what this whole thing about vaccines is, everyone knows that vaccines cure diseases, they don't cause them.
I'd like to see one person refute my data. How can such a correlation not mean anything?
-
:lol: You should do one about FS3 threads, that's a more pressing issue IMO
-
I think the OP might have autism.
-
:wtf:
I'm afraid you have the correlation backwards good sir. The increase in autism has led to the increase in windmills.
-
I thought the increase in autism was due to the decrease of pirates? Or was that global warming?
-
If you put that on a log scale, it'd look like a much closer set of curves

I CAN HASES CORALITION?
-
/me simply blames the increased number of autism reports on the incompetence of those who check for it (so called false positives are increasing...)
-
One thing I see lacking on all of these charts is a regression line :p
-
Heh, I thought you meant "Windmills (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,62062.0.html) causes autism".
-
Now THAT would be a story! :D
-
Hahahah! THAT'd be interesting.
-
A dozen replies and no Don Quixote reference? Shame on you!

Hehe, this thread could reveal more about people! I thought it was about this:

I recall that with higher momentum that movement rolls actually over your forehead, and initially when practising it one can bet one will smack his head on the floor. It is a lot more fun when it is smooth, though.
