Not true. This isn't a list for urban myths - if you're going to go off-topic, you could at least do it accurately. :-)
http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=293 Sikh - 336,000 people. Jewish - 267,000 people. Buddhist - 152,000 people. Jedi was classified under 'Other religion' along with Druidism, Satanism, Wicca, Pagan, Freethinker, etc, etc. The total for ALL these was only 179,000. Of course, Jedi only got as many 'votes' as it did because of a spoof email which tried to convince people that it would make it into an 'official' religion. Which is, of course, complete twaddle! -- Peter Moore Systems DBA, SchlumbergerSema, Reading > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 25 February 2003 08:14 > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L > Subject: Re: Top 10 DBA Do's and Don'ts anyone - Here is my list, > > > > Perhaps we depend to much on the force to guide and protect > us at times... > > :-) > > Laugh you may, but in the last UK census (not a poll mind you > but the actual > national census) 400,000 people indicated their religion was > "Jedi".
