Using "statistically" in all caps, and then following it with "something like" really hurts my head. It's like using "exactly" and "almost" together.

If you're quoting STATISTICS, you should just go ahead and quote them, rather than providing an estimate and labeling it as STATISTICAL fact.

If you have a problem with non-exact statistics, then too bad for you. Unless your sample size includes the ENTIRE population, statistics are always going to be "something like".

Sorry Wink
