One of the Chance lectures (http://www.dartmouth.edu/~chance) from about 2
years ago spoke about this. The example I remember had to do with the
safety of airtravel. Specifically the speaker translated the probability
of dying in an airplane accident into "one flight per day for xxx years"

Oh! I hoped he was using 'self esteem' as a place holder for
a hypothetical study. Sort of like, Professional baseball teams

We are currently looking at how quantitative risk assessment is used. Doses can be in

Avid regression-to-the-mean watchers may be interested to know that,
according to yesterday's summary of the growing rich-poor divide
(on teletext news), the current top 10% of earners have had
a higher percentage increase in income over the past x years
(for some x that I've forgotten) than ha
Also of interest are the writings of R.B. Cattell from the '50s and
