statistics take home midterm...

I'm currently in the trenches of statistical combat. Yesterday I was on the defense as the outliers have been on attack. Today I shall make my move. It shant be easy but it must be done. These outliers are of another planet and will require several strategies of computer powered analysis. Have no fear, these outliers will not bring me down but the dummy variables that follow... well, I'll let you know how I fare after facing them.
