That's right. The focus of the article was a great example of poor conclusions based on limited data points. I would have hoped that Journalism 101 would have taught the author that an article which provides a "rating scheme" to denote sociological patterns or tendencies based on only two data points is valueless. Apparently, the author never took any courses in Statistics.

The only "point" to the article is that people will believe whatever they want to believe, and if they are exceptionally selective on the data from which they base conclusions, they can never be "wrong." What's sad is when this is practiced in justifying political choices.

It has rained on both Thursdays of December this year in the DC area, but no rain fell on Atlanta. With "rain" and "Thursdays" being the only data points, if I follow the author's deductive logic, then you just can't be in DC on Thursdays in December without an umbrella, but you can go hat-less in Atlanta. That's deductive logic based on two data points.
