Fun with data

I've been squeezing in bits of data-entry at work, in between real actual work tasks. So today I'm keying in the court report from the day I got my AOA. (10/7/89)

Other AOAs that day:
Rolf (MSCA); Cynthia (OL); Catherine (?); Ygraine (OL, OP); Thorgeirr (KSCA); Nicholas (active, not a peer); Beo (MSCA); and Yezdigurd (active, not a peer).

Scary.

Of course, it's fishing for correlations. You could fish at the non-AOA honors that day and find: Gwynedd (inactive); Donal (mostly inactive); Rhys (dropped out, out of kingdom); Katya (out of kingdom, activity level unknown); Barbara (mostly inactive).

So the data doesn't really tell you anything -- except maybe that I'm a busybody who still knows the whereabouts of people who were all at one specific event 14 years ago.

my first event was about 2, 3 years after that. I don't feel old at all.

:-D

Now I feel old. That event you're talking about is seventeen years to the day after I joined the SCA.

No wonder I don't get out much anymore. I'm a fossil.
