Hi again. My apologies for sending out the shady stats piece with such an insufficient intro and vague question. Too little sleep. Some folks have emailed me asking what I am about:) I should like to know how independent from government manipulation the stats on infant mortality are? i am firmly convinced that the sanctions are a huge mistake and I see the ridiculous nature of most of this article esp. regarding Iraqi gas prices in light of the now worthless dinar etc. I am still uncomfortable with the stats and would just like to know a bit more the process so that when folks ask such questions I can offer a clear answer. Sorry if this info is readily available on the site and I am overlooking it. Sorry if this was a nuisance.
