Does anyone know of Internet sites with raw data sets which could be used
in statistics classes? There are many sites (U.S. Bureau of Census, Bureau
of Labor Statistics, Statistics Canada etc) where one can find categorical
or tabular data, but it is not so easy to find raw data measurements of
continuous variables to be used for confidence intervals or test of
hypothesis for population means.

Any sites to explore would be welcome.
