Personally, I think Professor Hempel could benefit by deepening his knowledge of the work of that eminent clergyman, Thomas Bayes.

Because, as George Box has famously noted:

"There's no theorem like Bayes Theoreom, like no theorem I know ....
Everything about it is exci-i-ting...."

and so on
and so forth

For those wondering, the poem must be a reference to Hempel's Paradox.

I thought WeirdNet usually put noun definitions first, but here it's gone for verb definitions—because there are more of them, maybe? Or just because it's WeirdNet?

I never saw a purple cow
But if I were to see one
Would the probability ravens are black
Have a better chance to be one?
