Oh, and in amusing side note, Julian Sanchez uncovered evidence that determined Lott defender Mary Rosh is actually John Lott, and Lott actually confessed. Atrios, Roger Ailes, Kevin Drum and Tom Spencer also seem amused. I've had some discussions with "Mary" on Usenet. Her argument style is that if the facts disagree with Lott, then so much the worse for the facts. You can see an example here. You can read her Amazon review of More Guns, Less Crime here. And check this posting out, where "Mary" defends John from a criticism of his 98% brandishing number and rips into Bellesiles for repeatedly changing his story.
