Title: Simon's Letter
Post by magpie on May 27^th, 2003, 2:03pm

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to let you all know how well "Simons Letter" worked for me as I struggled to discribe this demon and its affects to my family, friends and co workers. I encourage everyone to use this. I am lucky that I work days and it usually only strikes at night. But Ive still got to deal with my kids and they know for sure to get the hell out of my way for a couple hours. I have to call the neighbor to come get the little ones. This May I have not been too bad but as always April was a killer. Does anyone know of any demographics done on CH.? I always wonder if there is any connection to where you live. Take Care and Have a SAFE and HAPPY Summer

I compared the US Census population with the "Where We Live" list on this site. Here's some (probably meaningless) statistics...
Lowest cluster rate:
17 people from Mississippi listed here vs. Mississippi population of 2,871,782. So 1 per 169,000 has clusters.
Highest cluster rate:
14 people from Alaska listed here vs. Alaska population of 643,786. So 1 per 46,000 has clusters. ;D

(But then it could mean that Alaskans are hypochondriacs or have more time to spend on their 'puters. Or that people in Mississippi don't have 'puters or don't know how to use one).
