[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 554332, member: 3419"] GREAT ideas here. So many ideas from all over, and such a good question. It is troubling, the number of suicides. I think there may be more suicides, and also more media coverage. I saw a stat from a UK newspaper that said suicides in the U.S. had surpassed death by car accidents. I did not believe it because, well, it was too unbelieveable. So I did my own little search, and they may not have surpassed them, but as of 2009, the numbers are equal. Part of it is safer driving, seatbelts, medical care, etc. Part is the increase in suicides. Scary, sad, sobering. (Sorry for the alliteration; it just came out that way.) [/QUOTE]
