Power Law Paper

Owen Densmore
Administrator
Bill McKelvey, who put on the Arrowhead conference some of us just got
back from, is publishing a review paper on power laws, and how they
will impact social sciences.  He'd be delighted to get wide review from
such as ourselves.

 From the paper:
   Conclusion:  No statistical findings should be accepted into
organization
   science if they gain significance via some  assumption-device by which
   extreme events and infinite variance are ignored.
