1. Yeah, but those are 5 of the most populous states.

What about casualties per capita? :shrug:

2. That was my question, as well

Losses as a percentage of the total population....??? All politics IS local, and the impact can be just as great, if not greater, when small towns are impacted.

3. Apparently us Austin folks think the same way!

You beat me to that same comment. Thinking like me could be a very bad sign for you, I suggest seeking professional help quickly!

4. I'd imagine that Georgia has to pretty damn high per capita

45 killed from GA? Doesn't Georgia only have like 7 million people in the whole state?

5. Yeah, I'd be interested in per capita as well

Oregon has fewer than 3 million residents and 34 killed.

But we did vote for John Kerry and Al Gore before him, so there's that . . .
