Information Please!
OK, Google was formerly my favorite website. But not anymore.
http://www.infoplease.com/
This site came up in a Google search for "leading causes death worldwide."
After the Tsunami, I needed to put things in perspective. I had seen a big headline about a train wreck in Bologna, where 14 people were killed. I was thinking to myself, "14 people... that's all? Who cares?!?! 150,000 people just died from ONE wave!"
What a callous bastard I've become!
Anyway, this Infoplease site is simply ridiculous. We need more sites like this. It's a great alternative to libraries.
