"Be like Bentway and convince yourself that you're more likely to be killed by swine flu than by terrorism." I'm absolutely sure that's 100% TRUE. But, I'm not worried about swine flu OR terrorism. Remote, unlikely threats. Here's some charts, Check 'em out: drugwarfacts.org cdc.gov "The actual probability that one of us might die of a terrorist attack on US soil. If we count Oklahoma City and 9/11, plus the smaller terrorist attacks, we end up with something close to 3100 terror deaths in ten years. That's about 310 deaths by terror on US soil per year. By comparison, we lose about 400,000 people per year to tobacco, and 20,000 to homicide." Are you REALLY an engineer, and did you REALLY attend an Ivy League school?
