Every statistician, epidemiologist, and the like should be legally required to get a tattoo in a publicly visible place reading Correlation is NOT causation. The font size should be no smaller than 48 points.

That may eliminate some of the more stupid "studies" that are published (but I'm not optimistic).
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

--Winston Churchill
