  Posting those 5 words doesn't dismiss an argument. You could throw out a lot of medical studies on that rule alone.

    >>Posting those 5 words doesn't dismiss an argument. While it doesn't equal causation, it's a sure as hell cue that's something funny might be going on. It may be a cue, but cues themselves are not actionable. They simply mean that more research is needed until causation is found.
