Grossman - La Caze E B M Paper
[We’ll work on this once we’ve finished our separate EBM papers.] [I’ve just finished mine. Let me know when you’re ready. Jason]

Does EBM Suck?
Sackett’s version of EBM does suck. Just totally.
The rigid evidence hierarchy sucks.
Jason claims that Sackett / evidence hierarchy is what EBM is. This requires a research project to document (i.e. to check whether Jason is right).
Two possible conclusions, which we’ll write up as dissenting opinions:
ADAM: Here is what EBM-star is. EBM-star is what EBM will have to be.
JASON: There is no way to rescue evidence hierarchies.
These views are not quite as different as they might seem (although they are different).
