[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"the data say"[/quote] I'm probably just missing something, but what's wrong with this one?

I don't care that your overlords told you it is "correct". [/quote] Wow. I usually go with "the data would indicate" or the "data supports." You must hate me. I don't care. -a scientist[/quote] Perhaps your data are of no interest to the scientific community. [/quote] My point was that data doesn't "say" anything.
