This is the sort of thing I like learning about. :D
There must some sort of graph that can be drawn.

Would you be interested in knowing that the actual length of any river is about three times longer than the straight line joining the source to the end then? That's Maths too.

Eh? That must depend on the age of the river. And the softness of the terrain it travels through.
*searches*
Ok, so the average of all rivers approaches pi.

Wouldn't it look like two bells with most people having two feet?

No, I don't. But I'm thinking that dwarves might.

"Wow, I thought KG showed up for a second!"
Yeah, I borrowed his sig' graphic. I'm sure he periodically lurks, then thinks to himself "this place is like a den of wild ferrets" or some such thing. :D

*Feral ferrets.
Not because it alliterates, but because ferrets are a domestic animal so you don't get wild ones :Y

"I expected that to come from Truffy".
You know how us gun-crazed Americans are. If nothing else, we're quick on the draw. ;-)

If you want to be pedantic about it, wild ferrets are properly known as "polecats", although they're in the canine family.

Go sit at the top of some stairs and watch people as they arrive at the top.
For added fun, record the rough position of each foot for their last three steps, then plot this for each foot and the combination of feet and see what you get.
Then, go to somewhere with old worn stone steps and repeat.
