Terrorized by Fearmongers

There are One Million Ways to Die (probably a conservative estimate), but terrorism is not one of the more likely causes, at least not in the US. Ryan Singel of Wired News has compiled this handy chart (HT: BoingBoing):

200609181210
The chart lists the number of deaths in each category from 1995-2005.

    Weird how “walking down the street” is listed as a cause of death. I guess it is in some sense, but “getting hit by car” or somesuch seems to have a bit more descriptive punch to it, and that’s presumably what’s meant.
