Rather than flame the article, the scientific thing to do is replicate the experiment changing a variable or two (factorial design) and invalidate the earlier study. If some serious professional seeks to do such I suggest getting a copy Campbell and Stanley's "Experimental and Quasi-Experimental Designs for Research" [Rand-Mcnally] to seek out sources of internal and external invalidity. But I am skeptical anyone would do this. As Peter Denning noted, few studies ever get replicated in computer science. Make my day, prove me wrong. e. nobuo miya
