After death of Joshua Dean & John Barnett, their lawyers are concerned about the possibility that around 10 more Boeing whistleblowers may suffer the same fate.
Yes if you’re including the entire population (which is not how stats works) as his demographic is exponentially more at risk than many others (age, onset of pneumonia, etc)
We do ourselves no favors by sounding like conspiracy nutjobs who are uninterested in facts. When they go low, we should retain the high road, imho.
Edit: this… basically means tangentially what I had intended to say, so it is better off to be deleted, though I will leave it as strikethrough for the historical record (I really hate all those “deleted” messages, and don’t want to contribute one of my own too!).
I apologize for my wording - I agree with you that I was out of line. There was some point I was trying to make, about the need to be cautious with our wording, but somehow I ended up doing the exact thing I was trying to warn about, didn’t I? Fwiw I don’t actually think that you suck at all - I was just really, Really, REALLY bad at expressing myself there.:-) Thank you for not returning the favor in like manner.
I did do the math on it and the second guy only had a 1 in 3630 chance of dying of natural causes in that time window.

I admit I am not a stats guy. Please tell me what I did wrong in my math. Totally open to being corrected here.

I felt no need to respond because you twice didn’t answer the question I asked.
What are the odds that a 45 year old would die in a 75 day time period?
Just a simple number and how you got it. This is the third time I have asked.

Yeah yeah I suck, get in line and take a number. Now, will attacking me bring those two murdered men back to life?
