- senthil_rajasek 9y agoSorry, no. Just went back to wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empirical_evidence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empirical_evidence and empirical evidence is not just many anecdotal evidence.
- iovrthoughtthis 9y agoAre anecdotes not "the knowledge received by means of the senses, particularly by observation and experimentation", often used such that it "verifies the truth (that which accurately corresponds to reality) or falsity (inaccuracy) of a claim"?
