Discussion: Applications of the Normal Distribution

In your initial post, describe a measurement that you used and assess whether it may or may not have a normal distribution. For example, you may have measured the amount of time you spend each day watching television. 

Respond to your classmates' posts and further discuss how understanding the normal distribution can support decision making.

Can you please help me with more examples as well?
