Thanks for the reply. I found some other information on the internet

http://www.wku.edu/~david.neal/statistics/confint/zconfint.html

Because of that info, I realize that I don't really want just a
confidence interval on the mean.

What I also want to do is characterize the width of the underlying
distribution. I would like to be able to say that if another point is
generated from the same distribution the list then the new point will
have a 95% chance of being in within certain bounds. How do I do that.

Thanks,
Peter
