Greg PakI'm enjoying the morbidity of this "odds of dying of various causes" video from the National Safety Council. Stay to the end -- the final stat made me laugh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHk261gXnxc&t=59s&ab_channel=NatlSafetyCouncil

On a serious note, I didn't know that as of 2021, we've got a 1 out of 93 lifetime chance of dying in a car wreck and 1 out of 89 chance of dying from a gun. 1 out of 10 for COVID, 1 out of 7 for cancer, and 1 out of 6 for heart disease, in case you were wondering.

I was not, Greg, but good to know. The stat I am most concerned about is the "Gun". The others are all addressed by law, policy or scientific research with possible medical remedies. Guns, for some reason, are categorized with natural disasters like earquakes and there is nothing for us to do. Scary, I know, but there it is.
