One of my favorite quotes is this: Statistics are like bikinis, what they reveal is intriguing, what they cover up is essential.
There has been a recent news report that the divorce rate is down. Before those of you who hold marriage as a sacred institution start jumping up and down with joy, read the link. It appears that divorce is indeed down, but not really because fewer marriages are ending in divorce. Fewer people are getting married.
A recent study also shows that stagecoach robberies are down in the United States and Viking raids have stopped on the British isles. Local politicians have been quick to take credit for both.
