This last brought forth a good chuckle. Perhaps combine them into a single 
entry?
On a serious note, to have someone of significant experience say that they hadn't heard of 
SAS's method for doing "x", for nearly any x, marks a welcome climate change.  (And took 
nearly that long.)
The phreg procedure also added a "Scheffe test" of the overall hypothesis, by the way, 
which no one here has yet back-engineered to figure out what they are doing.  An F-test?

The short summary: I was suspicious before, now I know for certain
that it is misguided, and the phreg implementation of the idea is
worse.
A fortune candidate, if ever I saw one.
OK, but please state clearly that 'phreg' refers to a SAS procedure, not the 
function with the same name in the  R  package 'eha' (I should have chosen 
another name, had I ever heard of SAS).
That'll be the 2nd fortune candidate of this evening...
