| | EF Christmas Tree
Since joining this forum, and having persisted - despite the usual Newbie initiation, which almost made me want to re-enter my previous non EU space again - I've come to realise that it can provide a back-bone of info.
It's even re-ignited my interest in the country I abandoned over 20 years ago in my search for a better life (all boxes ticked here in the meantime, despite the usual hurdles).
Have even made valuable friendships (almost as good as my very few Swiss friends  ).
Working as ever within big finance companies, am always astounded when new people coming from all over the Globe into the team know of EF as an absolute fact - and use it well. I always refer them here as well.
So, there are some actuaries (etc.) out there, and would be interested in their interpretation of the following: http://www.englishforum.ch/xtra/stats_by_month.php |

How do the scales compare? If there was a relationship between the scales used (like posts/10) with posters it might be easier to interpret. Right now posts look like some condensed scale next to posters, but I don't see the relationship.
Do you have the data? Like a 3 column spreadsheet. I'm lazy, but i want to plot it out.
Oh, ok....i see where it comes from. Bar graph scale is confusing.
