Fm, is there any way to make the names not overlap or make the graph (but not the text) larger? I can't see any names anymore except for the people on the outer fringes.

They're using this page to make the graphs, so there isn't any way to change the scale, unless it's put into an external program.

Ah, ok. I guess it's not meant to have that many people on one graph.

Edit: I wonder if Excel does scatter plots with labels on each dot?

No there isn't....I just keep editing the URL....re-entering everything would take too long

EDIT: I would assume excel could do that if someone wanted to make it

Our political compass reminds me of the H-R diagram.

Yup! Most of us fit into the Politcal Main Sequence, save for kjhsscioly, who is about to go Supernova.

No, kjhsscioly is just way further down what would be the Main Sequence...so red dwarf? Blue cobra, who's the other main outlier, would either be a red giant star or a white dwarf, depending on how you flipped/turned the graph to make it look like an actual H-R diagram.

x = 1.25
y = .5

I think the only reason I'm so close to the middle is that I couldn't strongly agree with most of the republican comments, they were to far left for me.
