I still can't see the relevance of Bayesian Statistics over Frequentist Statistics, and I take Less Wrong as evidence that this is a cause for clarification.
I'm looking for a historical narrative of the development of mathematics that tells me what mistake lead to frequentism over Bayesianism, which is supposedly the correct view. Alternatively, you can just say "Read PT:TLOS!" if it's that silly of a question.
This is one of the most succinctly informative comments I have seen on this site. The above two paragraphs manage to encapsulate many of the major themes of Less Wrong, all within the context of answering a specific question.
