A direct quote is a quote that you take from another source. You must put this in quotation marks and give a reference in parenthesis after the quote.
An indirect quote is when somebody else's idea or data is taken and paraphrased. For this, quotation marks are not needed, but it still needs to be cited.

How can you sue your utility company con?
I don't know but am also interested. Over 18 reps at DTE Energy have not been able to assist me with a dispute.

Funnily enough, you can only find the mean or the median salary. It doesn't tell you the mode. It doesn't, either, provide a histogram of the salary distribution curve. By looking at the shape of this it is easy to establish which of the three measures of average is most appropriate. Given that the histogram is conspicuous by its absence, and also the mode is not provided, one might well be forgiven for suspecting that the histogram distribution shape favours the use of the mode and that the modal wage is actually really crappy. Much crappier than many might think. I have managed to get hold of the basic histogram from other sites to check against ones I obtained last year. Sure enough, it is apparent at a moment's glance that the mode would be the most appropriate average measure to use. However, still no mention of a modal average. Now call me a cynic...... "
