I'm pessimistic. The obfuscators are out. I saw a clip of Fox last night where Dr. Phil claimed 360,000 Americans die each year from swimming pools. -- nm

I love the "People gonna die" logic. So let's do nothing to stop any of it! -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Apr 17, 16:19 3
- Memo to Dr Phil: swimming pools have life guards, cars have seatbelts -- nm - Beaker Apr 17, 16:22
- They going to lie about the numbers. If 360,000 people actually drowned each year, you'd bet swimming would be mandatory in school -- nm - crash davis Apr 17, 16:22 1
  - I assume this is the stat he pulled (and got wrong): "In 2015, an estimated 360,000 people died from drowning." - Cuzzin Todd Apr 17, 17:03
Maybe, but I can't catch swimming pool-itis from someone else. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 17, 16:18 4
- He was off by a factor of 100 (3,600). My point is they will say anything and blatantly lie to downplay this. -- nm - crash davis Apr 17, 16:20 3
  - Another thing that bothers me is that Dr. Phil IS NOT THAT TYPE OF DOCTOR! -- nm - crash davis Apr 17, 16:28 2
    - He's not any type of doctor. -- nm - jnine Apr 17, 22:37
    - And he's not really the type of doctor he makes out he is. -- nm - . Apr 17, 16:42
