Being 41, I grew up when trick or treating was still in the dark, and that's how it should be.

it used to be the last Sunday of october, not sure when it changed to the first sunday of november, Halloween did fall on a sunday in the 70's and 80's, and 90's, but we probably don't remember those times.

Think back to the movie ET, the Halloween scene, it was daylight.

edit, found it.

All that money spent, and they put these cheap tables in it. I wish they would have budgeted more for the esthetics. If it looks good most people wouldn't blink an eye with the amount of money spent, that table is an eyesore.

mmm, North of Donaldsonville is the river. Go further north and that's the east bank. Do these people know where they are talking about?

---

its the west bank of the river even though it is north of Donalsonville. The river doesn't run straight north to south, it meanders, if you look close it even flows north in a few spots, meaning the west bank will be on the east on a map, just look at a map of new orleans also.

When you score a Wechler for example there are tables with ages and raw scores that you use to get a composite scores, for example an 8 year old with the same raw scores on each subtests may have a higher Full Scale IQ with the same raw scores as a 16 year old.

In this graph you posted crystallized intelligence (stuff you learn over time) doesn't really go down. Not everybody learns that "Kleopatra is the queen of the Nile" or if "Thomas has 10 pencils and he give 5 away how many does he have left" at the same age. Some people are exposed to things at an earlier age due to better incomes, better area they were born in, church even. Some parents actually read to their children at night, take them to libraries, and go on trips. Those children are ahead of the average, most Lilley why they started "head start" programs. they are really not a HeadStart, more like "try to catch them up".

As you age you do forget things you learn but on your graph you showed it probably wouldn't be significant. but a person over the age of 25 would most likely have diminished ability to reason and solve problems, Overall IQ would be lower as processing speed composite would decrease over time.

Still cheaper than 1988. That $223.35 in 1988 after adjusting for inflation is about $604. And check out the interest rate, 14.9% By the time you add the $900 down and the 60 payments, they made about $5000 profit over the asking price.
