People don't do stuff like that around here because they're too likely to get shot. And deservedly so. An armed populace is a polite populace.

Put the gate back on. You can't get meaningful results if you're testing more than one variable at a time - if your results are the same as what you've been getting all this time, does it mean the gate is good and the skirts bad, or the gate bad and skirts good? Or both have no effect?

This was a big thing the prof harped on in Statistics 230, run several tests, then run all the data together into one result for a big picture - don't try to test everything at once. That way lies madness.

Stats 230 was where I discovered I actually enjoy working in Excel.
