Car accidents
Christian. you made a good point. Here in Brazil the mortality from car accidents is indeed very high and it would be impossible to spend all this time on each one. Indeed it is like a war. When I worked in the USA (many years) almost every family had some member that was lost or hurt in a war. In Brazil this happens with car accidents. However the disaster with an airplane and 200 deaths is indeed more shocking by the numbers (they now have planes with 800 passengers...) and I believe we are spending so much time on this disaster because we have an special interest in aviation and many here are pros. So I understand why we are focusing on this so much. I am not that interested in spending too much time trying to understand a car accident...only in trying to understand why so many.
