How childish to make an assessment at that superficial level! Claude was clearly provoked by Baird's unbelievably insensitive, totally asinine remark. Have I stepped over the line yet? I would like very much to tell you what I think of this Baird creature.

Mike;

When considering statistics one has to realize the source and intent of such information. It is easy to dismiss what appears as invalid for whatever reason. I did not feel like this was meant to provoke anyone but
I did feel that the information was offered from a sense of detachment from reality!

Either the creator of the post was hoping that an ignorant flock would get some message to save his/her soul or perhaps has no concept of reality? :)
