Please don't tell me this is the same fucking paper I had to skim two years ago. As >>100925 said, we refute this giganigger every other week.
If it's based on the paper, then I am pretty sure he got his results by making some pretty bad assumptions. He acknowledged that none of his data accurately correlated with labor time, but as one probably tended to be higher and one probably tended to be lower, he assumed that the average of these two would correlate perfectly. That's not just a very big assumption, it's also begging the question.
One thing I always notice is that no one is capable of so much as summarizing Cockshotts methods. It's like you're happy to have him on your side, but you don't actually read and understand him. Can't even blame you that much, as he's nearly unreadable.
