I've driven through Hanover, PA and I bet it's even more boring. A few traffic lights and strip malls.

We used to go to Pizza a lot as kids and I loved it but the last time I had it was soaking in oil to the point of being inedible.

I'm guessing it's named after your Hannover so that makes sense then.

Calculating Pearson's R (correlation coefficient) for an experiment we ran in my Psych class.

Did all of the calculations, only to get an R of 40 because I made a mistake in calculating ΣXY :face:

Luckily it's an easy fix, but I wasted half a page on my scrap paper running the wrong numbers. Frustrating.

2 recommendations for chips from Central PA:

Hartley's, from Lewistown- available in a fairly small area but including Wegman's in State College http://www.hartleyspotatochips.com/. BBQ or regular

Middleswarth, from Middleburg- http://www.middleswarthchips.com/index.html Especially like their BBQ

Mistakes were made doing maths. I know what I did wrong, but it's frustrating that I have to change all the values in the ΣXY column and do the numbers all over again.

Middleswarth chips are gr8. Generally speaking, trips to watch the curve play go something like this

1.) Drive to Altoona, make jokes about the climax, cheese house (rip), nanty glo, etc.

2.) Watch game

3.) Go to sheetz, order food, always buy middleswarth chips for the road.

4.) Profit.

I played it for about 10 minutes, got an 11 I think and thought it was kind of dumb, so I deleted it.
