This thread makes me laugh. If we applied statistics and math to everything, nothing would ever happen..
would you get married? heck no, 50% fail
would you drive? heck no, too many wrecks
would you play the slots? heck no 98% lose.
would you smoke?
would you drink?
would you do anything?

Mathematicians love to make arguments with numbers, fact is, real life doesn't work that way. Gee wait, there have been no hijackings since the TSA took over..that proves things are safer, doesn't it! Eureka!
