With regard to the following, would it be ethical or not to establish a
betting pool on the risk ratio in 2010?

"with medical records verification ... Dr. Kang and his colleagues
concluded that the risk of birth defects in children of deployed male
veterans was about 2.2 times that of non-deployed veterans."

Information Regarding Birth Defects" Gulf War Review, vol. 12(1), page

Sincerely,
