I do not know how to read your mind.  Given that, as you have been shown,
what is considered an "outlier" is based on subjective criteria, and when
you consider:

1) Such determinations are subjective (there is no clear definition nor
   single "standard" way to determine which points are outliers) -
   contrary to your claim that they are "fact".
2) It is rather silly to say 17% of the data are "outliers" - especially
   when those data are in a direct series tied to a *very* clear
   trend that includes 25% of the data.
3) Outliers are atypical - and it is a stretch to call 17% of the data
   "atypical".
4) You have clearly placed a great deal of focus on the correlation
   coefficient even though it is unwise to so at the expense of a
   focus on the visual graphs.
5) You changed your claims from calling 25% of the data "outliers" to a
   lesser number of only 17% of the data... you have had trouble making
   up your mind as to which points you want to include in your set of
   "outliers".
6) You were wrong to deny that the sigma lines can be correctly drawn
   based on the distance from the mean to the inflection points.
7) You were wrong to deny that the poorly done depictions I showed
   you were, in fact, poorly done.
8) You repeatedly snip and ignore comments which are contrary to your
   claimed views.

I think we can safely say you have no clue what you are talking about in
terms of calling *any* of the data "outliers" or the rest of your claims
statistical knowledge.  You simply wanted to be "right" and blew it.  Again.
Even you know you *are* lying when you claim to be knowledgeable in these
areas.  This, by now, has been absolutely proved.

    <http://tmp.gallopinginsanity.com/outliers.pdf>

And I just love that... so clear and easy to see how clueless you are. :)

> "Fitting a pattern" has nothing to do with whether or not they are anomalies.

<http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Outlier.html>
    -----
    An outlier is an observation that lies outside the overall
    pattern of a distribution (Moore and McCabe 1999). ...
    Outliers are often easy to spot in histograms. For example,
    the point on the far left in the above figure is an outlier.
    -----

I have shown you that before... you have offered no counter and just ignore
it.  You really show *no* understanding of the concept of "outliers", just
as you show very little understanding of the concept of standard deviations,
even though you are the one who brought up both topics!

But it is four of these six you claim are outliers (though you cannot say
which four!):

     <http://tmp.gallopinginsanity.com/LinuxTrend2011-2ndhalf.png>

Which of those points do *you* find as being a significant deviation?  Who
knows... not even you can say, you just ask me to guess.  [Above I show the
graph based on the complete set of 24 data points]

You do realize your ignorance is completely transparent, right?
