Sciency

Best line in the new Gelman article on zombies:
We originally wrote this article in Word, but then we converted it to Latex to make it look more like science.
As I aim for science rather than sciency, I stick to Word.

  1. I've really got nothing to say about the topic, just testing the new comments facility. So scientific in a way - I'm conducting an experiment.

  2. I look at this, thought of mates of mine who work at a statistical agent, their survey methods colleagues, of Zombies, and then strangely, I went and grabbed a beer.

  3. But Latex is SO pretty. I wish we wrote our forecast in Latex ...

  4. Matt is right, LaTex is cool! I write all my stuff in LaTex, it just looks SO much better than Word. And it handles maths so much better too.
