I googled the web with "america suffers"
I did another with "freak accident" which was interesting but too depressing
to post:

> 20 million are anxious neurotics

didn't want to make it 20 million and 1

i hope you don't get offended if i point out that these statistics can't
possibly be right unless there are some really, really sick people living
somewhere in america.
