Your point is? My point was that 20,000 died of the flu in this country last year and nobody died of smallpox.Do you think people are going to die of smallpox this upcoming year? Who knows?

What I do know is that 20,000 people will die of the flu this upcoming year and a whole lot of people will die or be disfigured as a result of auto accidents.

I don't waste time being afraid of the bogey man.

Why are you posting here then?

I don't think the level of emotion on this thread is any higher than a bunch of people sitting around talking about winter driving. Steer into the skid? Pump the brakes, or apply steady pressure? If you end up stuck, have some kitty litter in the trunk and a warm blanket, some food, and some water. Don't go out unless you have to until the roads are clear. Etc. Etc.

This is all we're doing. Go bleat hysteria, hysteria somewhere else. I often agree with you but you're being deliberately obtuse here.
