Joe has a great demeanor about him and is an excellent communicator! I only wish he had been available last Fall to explain CBR v. CBL and the lit review. I feel it could have saved me a lot of time. The analogy of a (neutral-stance) reporter, asking the researchers to speak for themselves is a good one. When talking this over with Jenney this week, I thought about Diane Sawyer-- sorry Oprah, I love you but you are rarely neutral-stance-- having a panel of experts on the show to talk about their findings. It would be Diane's job to introduce the topic or subtopic and then transition between each guest. Once upon a time, in month one, Dr. Wyly said we should not report but synthesize and that was confusing to me-- how do I synthesize without inserting too much of my own opinion there [I think that is called yellow journalism?] or coming to definitive conclusions too early. So, many thanks to Joe for clearing up some confusion!
I have more comments about CBR in my response to Jenney in another post.
