Thank you, Laughinggull108, I try to be prudent and careful. And, amazingly, the young man is listed in fair condition notwithstanding the apparent severity of the wounds. *** --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, laughinggull108 wrote: > > Sending out healing thoughts to the victim.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Whatever Wednesday
It's true, surfing provides the most extraordinary pay-off, unparalleld in my experience. The risk of an attack, though real, is nonetheless, relatively small. Here is the list of all shark attacks on the Pacific coast of the U.S. since 2000: http://www.sharkresearchcommittee.com/2000.htm So, all things considered, the likelihood of it happening to any particular surfer isn't great. Not that I don't think of it from time to time, and I was bumped once in 2009 at a different surfbreak, but car accidents and lightning strikes are more frequent causes of injury and death than shark attacks. *** --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Emily Reyn wrote: > > The possibility of a shark attack adds a hefty element of risk in my view. > Â Surfing must provide a heck-of-a-payoff.
