Age of group of person as nominal data?

I am not sure if I understand your question. I will rephrase it to: Should data collected on the ages of persons in a group be consider as nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio data? It is ratio. Now, let's try another question. A study finds that people with names beginning with the letter "a-k" are older than people with letters "l-z". In this case, the data collected on names in nominal data, but the ages are still ratio data.

Why do University of Kentucky fans hate duke university so much?

They're still bitter about the 1992 tournament game when Christian Laettner hit a shot at the buzzer to give Duke the one-point, overtime win. They're also worried about Duke being considered a better all-time program than themselves because Duke's had a lot of recent success while Kentucky has always been pretty good but not quite as good and definitely nowhere near the Blue Devils lately.

**SORRY TO DISAGREE, BUT......

I am a resident of KY and true blue KY fan, and yes, it's true that KY & DUKE are rivals in Basketball...although I don't hate DUKE.

As far as being bitter about the 1992 game any bitterness was washed away when we hoisted the big trophy in 1996 and 1998. If the 1992 had been called correctly and fairly Laettner should have been called for a technical when he stomped one of our players, Timberlake, the game would have never gone into overtime for Laettner to hit the great shot that he did. I am not one to say "we were cheated" everytime my team loses, but anyone who saw that game (if they tell the truth) can tell you, YES, the referees missed a big one there.

As for the "all-time better program" do I even have to go into specifics? 7 national titles to 3 titles--advantage Kentucky. Most all time wins advantage Kentucky. And you brag about DUKE's "recent success".... Duke has not had a very good team since the Williams/Dunleavy team 4 or 5 years ago and we all know that they choked against an inferior Indiana team, and as I recall the game was in Rupp.

Bottom line, I'm as true as a KY fan as you can get, and I don't hate DUKE. Yes, in the past DUKE has demonstarted very poor sportsmanship toward us (see 'stomping' above), but we don't hate DUKE. Hating takes lots of energy & DUKE isn't that good. So, don't flatter yourself!
