if every field test of vaccine x shows it is 20% effective, the results are reliable. this has nothing to do with how effective the vaccine is. reliability is not a word i would use in describing any vaccine. if every field test of vaccine y shows it is 95% effective, the results are reliable. i also think that the more effective vaccine y would be described as better. if field tests of vaccine z show results of 60-90% effective, the results are unreliable, but vaccine z could be said to be better than vaccine x, assuming all other factors including side effects remain similar.
reliable has a totally different meaning in research. and totally dirrerent to effective. if a watch is always 10 minutes slow it is reliable as you can rely on it to be 10 slow. not accurate but reliable. my grandad had a reliable bladder, he always pee at 6am, problem was he didn't get up until 8. reliable is not always good.
the days of wasteful business lunches are over. by decree. the tonyaod post is 9 years ago, most of the thread is over 8 years old. having resurected an old thread, i wonder if we can expect a serving of spam?

i'm guessing that people don't do the lotery coz they are greedy. they do it for a bit of fun and also some hope in the less than idylic lives we lead. if nobody ever won then no one would do it, so winning keeps the daydream/game alive. the greedy ones are those who run the lottery, unless the lottery is state run and supports charitable works. then it allows funding for some good works that wouldnt otherwise happen. as for missing the lottery by one number, lots of people have enjoyed that one of billions of numbers combination that didn't win, no big deal.
