[at-l] quote

[Jeff Mosenkis <jamosenk@midway.uchicago.edu>]

just for the record, I don't think the "Lies Damn Lies, Statistics" quote
was Mark Twain, I believe it is attributed to Banjamin Disraeli.
Ironically, when I did an Excite search to confirm this, the third
document that came up was an archived at-l post from Dec. of '96.

Gold star to whichever old-timer remembers the discussion context that
this came up in!  (Without looking it up - no cheating!)

hint: it didn't involve beans.
