I love the content of this web page but I hate the title, probably because I have spent the last decade of my life in the data mining industry, because the content on this site has nothing to do with data mining. Data mining utilizes statistics to find hidden correlations and other invisible patterns contained within a set of data (usually several sets of data). So it is naive to use the term in this generic sense. It may seem as if I am being picky but there is a reason to be exact, especially when you are dealing with a specific word that should not be watered down.
