July 24, 201412 yr Delta tells me I have flown over 200,000 miles in the last year. I always dread every minute of it. However, as LRCW posts, the roads are more dangerous. There have been MANY moments on the road where I am convinced without Angels watching over me, I would be history. I've heard it said that God protects idiots & small children...!

July 24, 201412 yr Per the numbers cited by LRCW earlier, an average of 677 people died per week in the US in 2013 in traffic accidents. I am evidently much slower than LRCW, but at least we agree on the math. :lol2:
