Lies, Damn Lies and statistics........numbers can be (and often are) shown to represent things in certain ways to advance ones own personal point of view...example:...we all hear how dangerous it is to drive during certain holiday weekends because of the increase of injuries and fatalities due to drunk driving...well statistically...it is SAFER to drive during these so-called dangerous weekends....how so?...well the total numbers of drivers are so high during these weekends that the number of deaths and injuries do not raise to the same percentage....so it is actually safer...but I'm way off point (what a surprise)...you can say what you want about where club members live and how many from each state show or what ever other number you want to show...the key is LOCATION and can folks get there with out too many complications....Saturday night, If you drink, don't drive!...on second thought make that count for any night...I'm thinking about going to the Raider Game on New Year' s Eve......but then again I'm not in my right mind, never have been..lol........FB ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
