Dear Leigh,

please see
http://www.wiwi.uni-muenster.de/statistik/download/vorlesungen/empwifo/kapitel_2.pdf
See fig. 5 on page 18:
When you compare the histogram in the middle and the lower histogram it
looks like we have the same sample data, arranged in two different
ways, from left to right and vice versa.
The skewnesses are +0.866 and -0.895. I am confused.

Klaus
