Humans are very inventive in our bullshit means and presentation. We spread it everywhere. These urban legend statistics aren't as appalling as what happens in so-called scientific studies...bias, bias and more bias and yet again bias. Mixed with suppression of truth and hopelessly infantile original theses. Mixed again with scientific arrogance about objectivity and pure methods. When it comes to bullshit, we are the champions of the world.
