[Eeglablist] robust ERSP statistics

It is hard to subtract all muscle components that might interact with 
the data at high frequency (because there are a lot of them and 
sometimes it is hard to decide if some components represent muscle 
activity or not).
The best approach to this might be to study the behavior of the data 
itself at high frequency and then study the behavior of a few muscle 
components. If the muscle components do not show the same behavior as 
the one observed in the raw data at high frequency, I think it is 
convincing that what you observe in the data does not arise from muscle 
activation.

Best,

Arno
