8.  Everyone grab a length of hose  Be ready to graph our data on the whiteboard! http://blissfullydomestic.com/wp-content/uploads/img_9999-1024x695.jpg

9.  What do you see in our data?  What would happen if we did this activity with a wider range of ages and people?  What would happen if we had smokers versus non-smokers?
