some statistical trivia

[Elind]

For those of you who like statistics, it may be interesting to view the following. Resp: is the number of those (in today's short list) who posted to a topic. View is those who looked at it. Seems that typically not much more that 10% feel inclined to comment (which is probably not bad), unless the issue involves gun control. Whatever happened to sex and politics?


Edited:

Sorry, but the forum software seems to remove all extra spaces, making the format lousy, even though it looks good when editing. Just take one space as the column divider.

Try using the "code" tag.

Column 1         2         3         4         5         6

Combine guns, sex, and politcs and you'll have a real winner.

But as everyone knows, 82.7% of all statistics are made up.

Keep in mind that # of views is # of views, not # of people viewing. Every time someone opens the thread, refreshes, etc., it adds to the count.

BTW, another way to put in spaces is to put "&nbsp" where you want a space.

Nice. Where do you learn that?

Sorry, I try to keep my geekiness concealed. My mom always wanted me to be something respectable like an artist or poet.

JREF has a better than average help area for things with codes though. They are a pretty helpful bunch, but I'd keep the noob questions in the proper area.
