Brief Statistic
31.11% of this forums posts belong to 1.32% of this forums posters. That is an enequitable distribution of posts. I call for an equiibrium of posts so that they can be shared equally between everyone in the forum.
Furthermore there are 338 people without any posts. This hardly seems fair.
I am currently owner of .95% of this forums posts. does that make me middle class? or maybe upper-lower?

This topic made me think of the Todd Snider song Statistician's Blues.
Check out the lyrics:

EDIT: Ok - I had to paste them in...
STATISTICIAN’S BLUES
Todd Snider ©2002
==============
They say 3 percent of the people use 5 to 6 percent of their brain
97 percent use 3 percent and the rest goes down the drain
I’ll never know which one I am but I’ll bet you my last dime
99 percent think with 3 percent 100 percent of the time
64 percent of all the world’s statistics are made up right there on the spot
82.4 percent of people believe ‘em whether they’re accurate statistics or not
I don’t know what you believe but I do know there’s no doubt
I need another double shot of something 90 proof
I got too much to think about
Too much to think about
Too much to figure out
Stuck between hope and doubt
It’s too much to think about
They say 92 percent of everything you learned in school was just bullshit you’ll never need
84 percent of everything you got you bought to satisfy your greed
Because 90 percent of the world’s population links possessions to success
Even though 80 percent of the wealthiest 1 percent of the population
Drinks to an alarming excess
More money, more stress
It’s too much to think about
Too much to figure out
Stuck between hope and doubt
It’s too much to think about
Pick it now
84 percent of all statisticians truly hate their jobs
They say the average bank robber lives within say about 20 miles of the bank that he robs
There’s this little bank not far from here I’ve been watching now for a while
Lately all I can think about’s how bad I wanna go out in style
And it’s too much to think about
Too much to figure out
Stuck between hope and doubt
It’s too much to think about
That’s right... It’s too much to think about... Amen... It’s too much to think about... Mmm hmmm
