The following explains why it is so difficult for psychologists to collect good data:
To figure out how heavy a pig is, you find a good stout plank and balance it on the pole of a fence. Tie the pig onto one end of the plank, and then run around to the other side and put a rock on the opposite end. Keep trying different rocks until you get one that balances with the pig. That's about it, all you have to do then is guess the weight of the rock!

*Thanks to Jim Robison-Cox of Montana State University for revealing the Texas method of weighing a pig.
