You know, one great thing about research is that it's all partial; that's why that section exists to discuss methodology and why that section exists to discuss the results. I was always taught that even research that presented "flawed data" was good because it got done. Write it up and send it out and suggest that researchers attempting to replicate the study do a few things differently. I'd love to see the article; I'll bet that you'll identify some concerns that others would invest in extending the research to test for themselves. :-D.

Darn. There goes a good idea for a paper. Charlie
