[pct-l] Hiking Pace and Enjoyment

[g l]

No, no!!!  NO numbers, please!!!!  You two are "outliers".  (Misspelled in an earlier post), which is "an extreme deviation from the mean".  So there ya go!  I own 4 television sets (formerly 6) which probably makes me an "outlier" in the other direction.  And my understanding is that none of them will work, come 2009.  Must be HDTV compatible and all that rot..........
   
  Roger on the Reinhold, but we like em that way!  Outlier to the max!
   
  Wheeew

  So we're mode brothers, eh?  That's pretty funny.  And yet when I think about a little, I shouldn't be too surprised.  Hikers are probably outside the norm, and distance hikers WAY outside.  We need to do a study WITH LOTS OF NUMBERS (for Gail).  I bet we'd find a lot of strange anomalies among the distance hiking community.  None of us are anywhere near normal!  Especially that Reinhold guy, he's the most abnormal of the bunch.

You don't own a television?  I thought I was the only one.  Makes us part    of a small mode, eh?      On Sat, 01 Dec 2007 09:51:42 -0800, Greg Kesselring <gkesselr at whidbey.com>    wrote:      
  
well, all I know is this: It is not normal for an American to not own a  television (because the norm is that Americans own televisions). I do    not own a television, therefore I am not normal. ..    Home wrote:      
  
Hmm, does my recollection match yours:  "Mean" = an average, add 'em up, divide by the number of datapoints.  "Median" = a mid-point in the data, an equal number of points above and  below.  Not necessarily a mean.  "Mode" = the most frequent, perhaps the most typical, response. ...
