REALITY CHECK
The last time I looked, mathematics was an wxact science. Try this for exact. Question 1. Since the implementation of the TSA methods of screening, how many acts of terrorism have been attempted on our airlines? Answer 1. Pick any number. Question 2. How many acts of terrorism have been accomplished on our airlines in that time? Answer 2. 0 Now divide Answer 1 by answer 2 and you get 0%. And 0% is a very nice number.</font>
Yiiiiiiiiiiikkkkkkkkkkkes!
The two responses to your post so far were really kind and only pointed out the lack of causality in your analysis.
I'll be crueler and point out that you've got your fraction upside down. I think you want to divide answer 2 by answer 1, not the other way around.
