>When you have a low probability event
(such as a horse death) and the numbers doubles for two years over the long term
average in a row while the number of starts only goes up by a few percent, that
is a dead on sign that something might be amiss.
Truman, there were, what, 7 reported deaths last
year?
There were years 5, 10, 20 years ago when we had 5,
6, 7 or more deaths. And fewer starts. So please, tell me where
this outrageous increase is.
YES, I agree we need to do everything we can to get
the number as low as possible. But the reports that the sky is falling are
becoming reminiscent of Chicken Little.
