The Great Gathering of the Banana Men

Okay, it seems that Pork&Beans is back on the blog. He always has such vivid dreams. Sometimes you can tie them to events when you look back on them. Sure, you can probably do this with most anything, except my dreams.

Last night I dreamed about comparing different samples of data with potentially different variances. I used Excel to test the probability of variance difference (F-test), then the t-test difference of means analysis... Later, when I woke up, I went to work and did these exact same things.

Of course, I solve problems in my dreams, I wasn't really prophesizing. But I would trade a dream about Excel with a dream about a sword-yielding fire horseman any day.
