Jason,
The way I got my 50% increase is that 19 in 17 months is over one a month, so I simply used 12 per anum. Ken Kurtis posted some DAN numbers a few weeks back that spoke to 8 per annum so that's a 50% increase...
You guys can do what you want with those numbers, but as I see it we are just behind Florida for the most fatalilties, and if you took the caves out of Florida we'd be the number 1 in the country.. That kind of information should be shared and discuused...
Later
