James (and others): I really wouldn't cite the BankDirect figure as a hard
value, since it represents just a single user, who may in turn have clicked on
the wrong button (i.e. the real figure could have been 0%).  It'd be better to
say "statistically insignificant" or "negligible" or some other close-to-or-
equal-to-zero synonym.
