What is Group? Richard Ulrich had argue the quackery concept of
an categorical-ordinal variable and CODE the NOMINAL groups
(such as Asian, Black, and American) as 1, 2, and 3 in the variable
called "group" and do a regression on it. That is called a BLUNDER
of the worst kind by undergraduates.
[snip, rest]

Rich Ulrich never argued that.

Reef Fish Bob recently read 4 or 5 posts that defined and described
and gave examples of ordinal categorical variables, and he never
figured it out. I guess he never figured out that there *can* be
"groups" with ranges of scores.

He implicitly called the original poster a liar.

I don't know what he figures that David W. and I were doing.

Reef Fish Bob has always been poor with definitions and
with verbal reasoning, but that thread seems to exemplify
another low point.
