12. It's all based on an assumption that the MOE is correct |

All of those contributing to that analysis go in assuming the MOE is correct. Mitofsky, the guy who set the MOE in the first place, says it is not. The studies from Duke say it is not. The studies from Cal Tech & MIT say it is not. And a direct interview between Freeman et. al. found that there was a serious flaw in one of the basic assumptions.
I just give you the links and the summary of their claims. I am not the guy doing the statistical analysis. So please, don't attack the messenger. i don't have to be a diety to tell you that there is a reasonable disagreement on this issue that you should look into further.
