Combing through data

03.10.2005

Spent today combing through my dataset, cleaning it up, testing it w/ some trial regressions. So far, it's working well. I still need to build electoral volatility measures, before doing the same again for uninominal/plurinominal data. Let me just say that porting data between STATA & Excel, back & forth, making sure to not lose/mess anything up is stressful. 90% of my time spent on this conference paper will've been mere monkey-at-the-typewriter data entry.

Other than that, winter's back. W/ a vengeance. Lake effect snow's accumulated several inches. And it's supposed to keep snowing through Sunday.
