I was amused by Steve Sumner's sentence:
"Tons of enthusiastic Mark Stenglein supporters showed up on Saturday
May 5
in front of Sgt. Preston's in SE Minneapolis."
Measuring people by weight is a touchy point for us oldsters with
expanding waistlines, but I was curious about what "tons of supporters"
translates into, peoplewise, since the franchise is quantized, one per
person regardless of weight.
So under various assumptions about number of tons represented and the
average weight of Mark's supporters, here is what his turnout was:
Tons of Average Stenglein Number of
Supporters Supporter (in lbs) Supporters
---------- ----------------- ----------
2 100 40
2 150 26.7
2 200 20
3 100 60
3 150 40
3 200 30
So Steve, what is the average weight of a Stenglein supporter??
Alan S
Downtown
Don't ask me the difference between
a long ton and a short ton!!
