Making Statistics interesting.

Yeah, someone should upload it to youtube.

amazing.

He makes me excited about stats, well done sir and ty.

besides. a drop of child mortality does not tell us much if the kids die from poverty related diseases at 5, 8, 14, or even 17 or 20. It just means that the statistics tell us people are still poor but perhaps some NGO aid is making a difference for a relatively short while. a nation where 30-90% die from poverty or any percentage for that matter, without bieng able to lead normal lives, then nothing has become better since "before the white man came". At least then they were FREE.
