A new set of trained eyes always notices unexpected, protocol-shattering things.

examples:
- A quality control consultant reviewing a factory's assembly line and making a couple of small recommendations to improve the number of functional units produced

- New statistics-trained post-doc challenging the principal investigator to no longer use T-tests when ANOVAs and regressions are the only things appropriate for the data

- Woods noticing the caption for Member's Playground isn't presently reflecting the board's culutre


My first thought when I read this thread? "But it has always said that. I was so excited to see that phrase when I finally gained access to MP. Why would we change it?" I guess I'm more resistant to change than I realized. Thanks, woods, for the moment of introspection.
