Why didn't you ask Bob Ling how he found
___________Z= _-0.9542_____________
(Aug 16, 2006, 11:43) OBVIOUSLY WRONG. WHY?

I don't have to ask, because he was correct in correcting your
errors, and the value of Z is correct for the test.

Why you didn't admit that my way to find the variance is the ONLY CORRECT in order to solve the problem was started this thread?

That was your error. Bob had already pointed out to you,
and explained why, your variance is correct if used in a
confidence interval statement, but is the wrong one to use
for the test statistic in testing Ho: p1 = p2.


Why you not comment my checking throughout simulations?

Because it is irrelevant to the issue esplained by Bob?


Have you feared of Bob Ling´s reaction or are you trying to give him a hand?

Bob is doing rather well without my help. I merely asked you WHERE
Bob " insisted" as you alleged when he had already said your variance
was fine for confidence interval construction of the difference of
proportions. If he had insisted on one, how could he have said
your variance is correct for confidence intervals?

Don't you think you are missing the point entirely that the
issue is what TEST STATISTIC is the correct one to use for
hypothesis testing and what is correct for confidence
intervals in the particular problem?

Have you the opinion that I am an ignorant (as Bob Ling classified me) or else the bundle is called Reef Fish?

If the bundle is called Reef Fish, why didn't you address him as
Reef Fish, instead of Bob Ling. Bob Ling has never posted a
single post in sci.stat.math using the posting name Bob Ling --
though we all know who he is. All of his posts, thousands of
them, were all posted under the name Reef Fish.

You must to answer this questions in order the Readers respect you.

I don't have to answer your question about your ignorance.
The readers can decide it for themselves. For the same
reason, I'll chance that your theory is wrong that if I don't
answer your question about your ignorance I would suffer
the disrespect from Readers that you proclaim.
