Labelling validity of results

Brief non-bioinformatics interlude: my rate of posting will gradually wind down over the course of the next week - this is mainly because I'm getting married at the weekend (hurray!) to my beautiful girlfriend and things are hectic. Normal service will resume in two weeks...

Anyway, Spitshine over at A Bioinformatics Blog put up a post that made me chuckle this morning; Quantifying the margin of error in high-throughput data interpretation. The idea is to help readers work out the validity of claims made in a paper by labelling them with short acronyms:

[I5] Inferred from Perl script. 5 lines of Perl can't be wrong.
[REV] Stinking reviewers didn't like our numbers. Have to put them into the acknowledgments.
[IA>] As high as we could get it to meet your expectations
...

Not that those are the three I'd end up using all of the time or anything. Go check it out...
