It should be/… might be/ must be / can be/ may be/

Laws of gathering data and research :-)

Murphy's law of research: Enough research will tend to support you theory.

Law of invisible phenomena: The absence of evidence is not evidence of

absence.

Unnamed Law: If it happens, it must be possible.

Finagel’s law: In any collection of data, the figure most obviously correct, beyond all need of checking, is the mistake.

Raw data is like raw sewage, it requires some processing before it can

be spread around. The opposite is true of theories.
