haha, thanks for pointing that out...not

It cant be skewed because we don't have a set number to be the center of normal distribution like we do on a grading scale, with C being the center. Assuming 16 is the center (and by having the most votes is that), it works, but is just continued farther on the older end of the spectrum.

BLEH!

you dont have to have a set of numbers to for a conclusion based on its shape. As long as there is a min and max value for x, which there is and you can clearly see the distru=ibution, you can make your judgemet. even if there wasnt any numbers values to go along with it, you still would say that it is skewed right

yeah ever since the new front page design it has been hard to see the thread and member pics, because its not right there to jump out at you... i think they should be on top of the news.
im not far from the majority but i like to think i am more mature than the majority, i hope i am at least.
