    8.1.2.1: Introduction

    Where can you find the best tacos in Texas? Who wrote the best version of the song Wagon Wheel? Which cause is most deserving of a federal grant? While all of these topics seem like fodder for a happy hour conversation, each one can be proven with specifically defined criteria and evidence.
