Actually, one just popped into mind. Ask Andrew about taking a group out to Oil Crack.

National parks average 12 murders per year; the overall frequency of violent crime in national parks is one attack per one million visitors

Odds of dying while in the bath tub - 1 in 1 million.

And while I am throwing out useless facts..

There are also 1 million ants for every person in the world.

Not a fun day, but even if I had a gun I wouldn't have used it or pulled it out, and we all made it out fine without it turning into a shoot out.

ha ha... awesome.

But that is one way to thin out the crowds. Pay some locals to fire warning shots on any group larger than 4.

warning hell!

this maybe the least constructive website I have ever been on. Thanks for everyone who continues to make it ineffectual. If anyone is interested in a constructive conversation please call me. If you'd like my number send me a private message and I'll send it to you.

Mission accomplished.
