You are being desperately unkind. 125% improvement is pretty impressive. Attenders will do the work or more than 2 staff when they return ;-) Meanwhile, can anyone let me know off list of reasonably priced 2/3/4 day courses on statistical modelling covering regression (especially logistic) with SPSS or Stata in mind, within a day's march of Oxford, for non-statistician researchers publishing in medical journals? Some of the U Southampton ones look interesting but they are infrequent.
