I understood it to be more of a caveat on his own set of statistics, anyway,
not just aimed at the original comment.

Could be Disraeli, but I always thought it was Mark Twain. "Lies, damn lies
and statistics" Having more than a smattering of probability and
statistics, I am fully aware one can bend numbers to tell any story or bend
any truth you care to. But, I, as did Denton and others, took the original
posting as a toungue in cheek bit of fun, not as an insult.
