[at-l] Statistics - just wondering...

At one time folklore (or maybe traillore) had it that half the northbound
starters dropped off by the NC-VA line.

I have do idea if that is still true, or if it ever was.

I wonder ...  What place or mile on the trail would represent the point at
which half of those who set out to be thru-hikers exit, and half get off
after that point?  Let's assume our "normal" bias of the hiker being a NOBO.
My guess is that point would probably be Neel's Gap, especially if you count
those who hike the approach trail from Amicalola Falls.
