Many highly touted Universities conduct research that is paid for by legal firms that represent a variety of clients who have an interest in the outcome of the study. I did a little professional witness work and got prepared by a large firm for a possible legal issue they were forecasting would impact a client. And when they questioned me about my knowledge regarding what I was to testify on they informed me of the things that I referenced that they had funded. Kind of an eye opener.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> ACPA on July 21, 2013, 12:37 am<\/p>\n<div>Richard,<\/p>\n<p>\tI think you were taken in by The Onion, don&#8217;t believe there was a study done.<\/p>\n<p>\tNoah<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Study: 83% Of Gamblers Quit Right Before They Would Have Hit The Big One http:\/\/www.theonion.com\/articles\/study- &#8230; uld,32709\/ Replies: Posted by: ACPA on June 10, 2013, 3:25 pm Notice that this is from The Onion.
