Re: seeking a good data set for CTABLES examples

[Ben Pfaff]

Here is one data set that seems to suit the purpose:
https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/2008-national-survey-of-drinking-and-driving-attitudes-and-behaviors
It's not perfect because the variable names are poor (they are simply
named for question numbers) and because a lot of the variables have a
wrong measurement level, but I'm going to start from it.

Please feel free to send me more data sets.
