I don't agree. It may be difficult to establish this in a conversation, but in court you can fairly easily get a ruling about what constitutes "accordance with best industry practices", including examples. The Judge decides. It's happened on 2 or 3 of the court cases, I've been involved with...

Tug... I'm well aware that there can be differences in the manner in which data is gathered. It's like saying China has the biggest carbon footprint without considering that they have 5x the population. With a bunch of information indicates the same thing (unless from the same source) then it...
Why would they publish information that was detrimental to the US? Shake the sawdust out, man.

A massive heart attack; my heart stopped for 5 minutes. Three months ago, I couldn't stand on my feet. Now with a walker I take 2 or 3 1000m walks a day. A 'street person, also without insurance, would have received similar treatment. Our medical systems are similar, but the US has inserted...

A similar problem exists in Canada:
