I was just talking about the notation "p(D|H)" (and "p(D)"), given that D has been defined as the observed data. Then any extra variables have to have been marginalized out, or the expression would be p(D, day | H). I didn`t mean to assert anything about the correctness of the particular number ascribed to p(D|H).

I did look at the table, but I missed the other sheets, so I didn`t understand what you were arguing.
