useless statistics
"According to the Post, five of the 10 girls behind the petition know a fellow teenager who has gotten pregnant."
I'm surprised this number isn't higher. If only one kid in a junior high gets pregnant, you'd think that every other kid in her grade, if not the entire school, would know about it.
I know I'm being pedantic -- this wasn't the focus of the article -- but bad statistics are a pet peeve.
