Maybe this is the wrong list to ask this on, but are there robust statistics
equivalent to the coefficients of skewness and kurtosis? I have robust
measures for location and scale, but I need them for skewness and kurtosis
as well.

If there's nothing to astrology, how come so many famous men were born on
holidays?
