I guess I was eluding to the frequency of incidents that we've been
seeing lately, and strayed from the focus of Rancho Murietta.

Frequency? I just saw a comercial on TV from some insurance company that
claims there is an automobile accident every 5 seconds in the US.
How's that for frequency...

0.2Hz

Did you know that, on average, approximately once every 5 hours 25 minutes
someone somewhere in the world dies falling out of bed? At least according
to this link:

Another good reason not to get out of bed in the morning!

And it seems more people die falling out of bed (1616) than in aircraft
accidents (1553):

It's a good thing every car or siesta accident doesn't get reported on
our local news! ;-)

Can you imagine? "Joe Dirt died this morning while falling from his
pillow-top queen... It was a text-book fall, as you can see while I'm
panning out...... hang on a second...... this just in....... we have
another apparent sleeping accident up-town.... it is unclear as to
whether there are any fatalities, but we will bring you details, as
they become....... hang on a second..... folks.... we have another
one................."

Cheers!

They always automatically report it's a queen. It was, in fact, a full size
bed ...reporters!

Next they're going to tell me it was a Serta mattress, when it was clearly a
Sealy Posturepedic ....reporters!
