   Sorry, but 99.9% of the time are statistics I can live with. The 
Statistics are probably greater then this that I will be killed in an auto 
accident. I'm not about to stop driving. The statistics are probably greater 
then this that you might sustain a head injury while kayaking. Do you always 
wear a helmet?
