By all means, provide a concrete example that doesn't rely on cherrypicking data [such as simply picking food or a methodology I can't find without giving someone money] showing they are incorrect.

Yes, if you cherrypick items you can find item X changed faster than the total basket for CPI. CPI is intended to gauge the general rate of inflation over the economy as a whole, not that of specific purchasing patterns by individuals. As s

In the UK, you still use I and not i. Fair enough but I'd suggest in the future you proofread more before self-submitting to HN.

Yes, and the NSA would refuse to give the context...so you have to make assumptions about information about them.

Yes. But do you honestly expect them to provide that context so we can be sure?
