That reminds me how my father loves to tell the story of a doctor who wasn't convinced that sun causes skin cancer so he went to India for a year and didn't wear sunscreen once and lo and behold he didn't get cancer so he disproved that sun causes cancer.

Again, my dad is a mathematician. Granted, analytical and computer algebra, not statistics, but dear Lord.
