The Elijah/Elisha cycle of stories is one part of Scripture to which I continue to return for inspiration in science, religion and social concerns. I get these interests from both my parents - my mom as housewife, feminist, lay pastor and my dad as engineer turned into pastor. I have lived in both city and country. There are things I love about both. I've been a cook, roofer, manager, pastor, musician, and more. Currently I work at a motel and am trying to become a writer.

Mean Mode and Median
I've always enjoyed statistics even as I remember the Twain dictum about 'lies, damned lies and statistics'. Over at Good Math, Bad Math there's an article about the different ways of using statistics. It's not that one is more useful than the other, it's a matter of choosing the proper tool for what you want to accomplish.
