I wonder if that will convince my wife. Probably not.<p>Her stats superstitions drive me crazy. Ever heard of the Chinese birth calendar? For example: <a href="http://www.webwomb.com/chinesechart.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.webwomb.com/chinesechart.htm</a>.<p>90%+ accuracy should be an easy claim to bust. Unfortunately for me it's been right for our kids 2 out of 2 times. Why are stats always so hard to sell over anecdotal experience?

Well the Death List 2010 (<a href="http://deathlist.net/" rel="nofollow">http://deathlist.net/</a>) is only up to 2. They'll be hoping for some clumps (statistical or not) to beat their 2008 record of 12 (<a href="http://deathlist.net/?y=2008" rel="nofollow">http://deathlist.net/?y=2008</a>)
