req:pennsic pop data

[Eric Jon Campbell <ejcampbe@eos.ncsu.edu>]

HI does anyone know the population of pennsic on the dates I am missing
I am going to try and forecast the attendance

my rough estimates assuming a linear growth in the years between 15 and 
eighteen is giving an attendance of 9591 but I think this may be a little 
conservative since the trend looks exponential (Q*(X^(pennsic 
year))) in the long run, however, I need the recent points to see if there
has been a point of inflection(pennsic leveling off like in an organic growth
curve).  It seems that pennsic has been growing recently at about 600 
people a year at a slightly increasing rate. 

Thanks in advance

Yes I am REALLY looking forward to pennsic(can't ya tell)
