[Paddlewise] Risk Assessment

Well there's no kayak anywhere in sight, but I saw this video right after
reading Dave's email and couldn't help but think that perhaps we're not the
only species who sometimes engages in faulty risk assessment. For your

The guys who did the speed record around Vancouver Island took some
calculated risks.  Risks I would not take, even if I were as prepared as
they were.

It is all about the level of risk you regard as acceptable.  No such thing
as zero risk.
