This is a typical bit of Usenet nonsense, where people are too inclined
to rubbish the efforts of other professionals, while claiming their own
activities are a tour de force that's beyond reproach from mere
amateurs.

As in the Titanic was built by professionals, the Ark by amateurs?

I wonder how many marketing/PR people have more than a GCSE in maths?

Thanks for digging a bit more of this hole, and jumping in!

Hmm. Are we building up to you saying that there is a conspiracy by Big
Maths and people with specific sector knowledge to suppress the secret
truths unveiled by PR surveys, a bit like the way people with medical
qualifications conspire against homoeopathy?

No conspiracy, but you meeting a few clueless marketing/PR/
Market_Research people doesn't mean they are all like that.
