Oh really? I wonder how it can be that the number of accidents per 100,000 
miles has been on a steady decline since the late sixties along with the 
absolute number of deaths despite a multiple increase in the number of cars, drivers, 
and miles driven?  Must be some kind of misty statistical fantasy from the 
vast right and left wing conspiracies,eh?
