<DIV dir=ltr>Probably not, and the mileage on the title of an auto or truck is

tell by the wear <BR clear=none>on floorboards, rust, paint scratches etc if a
trucks mileage was <BR clear=none>right. Tractors are a different

change the hoses and belts, new seat and cab interior <BR clear=none>and it is a

Automobiles and trucks are. When you sell an auto, you record the mileage at
time of sale and your signature. Is it even illegal to alter the hour meter on a
tractor?<BR clear=none>><BR clear=none>> -----Original Message-----<BR

is what it is because somewhere in its history the hour meter was turned

Offiler] I never took a whole semester of Statistics. Instead, we had a
course called Engineering Experimentation, which was heavy on experiment design
and statistical data analysis. That gave me a very good appreciation for
the practical application of statistics. Out in the real world,
on-the-job training programs in quality control principles in manufacturing
(Deming, Juran, Lean Six Sigma) continued to solidify the practical
applications.<BR clear=none>>><BR clear=none>>> [Cecil Bearden]
Steve: I nearly flunked statistics I only passed because I was a graduating
senior. However, I did flunk Rocks & Clods 2124 and had to find
another 4 hours to graduate. Then 35 years later I retire as a
Geotechnical engineer designing foundations. !!!<BR clear=none>>><BR
clear=none>>> [Stephen Offiler] I'm not sure if that is an interesting
statistic, or simply predictable statistically. All you just said is that
a bell-curve distribution for 2-year degrees overlaps a bell-curve distribution
for 4-year degrees.<BR clear=none>>><BR clear=none>>> [ James Peck]
The interesting statistic is that some technical 2 year programs have higher
starting incomes than many 4 year degree programs. People who complete such a
program can later take a 2+2 program to get a four year degree if they
choose.<BR clear=none>>><BR clear=none>>>
