I'd really like to see the follow-up on how to decide which data to actually use. Right now, it's pretty unsatisfactory and I'm left quite confused.

(Unless this was an elaborate plot to get me to read Judea Pearl, whose book I just picked up, in which case, gratz.)

wholeheartedly agree, but as I said, I'm not confident that I understand Pearl well enough to be the one to write it.
