[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 994875, member: 17767"] dun, that is just exactly what Kenley showed us today with regard to the bell curve and how the confidence level can predict the results. For example, a bull with a lot of data behind him can really narrow that confidence range to a degree that you know about what the out come will be on say birth weight. There is always going to be the data point outside the predicted range but there is value in knowing that you can expect a bull to throw calves below the average weight of the breed with a high degree of confidence. BTW, you know you are getting old when you are in a group where you are twice as old as the next oldest member of the group and 15 years older than the instructors. :( [/QUOTE]
