Statistics answers to Kees Paap


Sorry to repost this--I forgot about the narrow window & wordwrap!!
I'm caught in my favorite pink blouse which has tiny buttons everywhere,
but especially the 3 on each cuff.  My husband can't get them undone
& I gave up about an hour ago, its too late to wake the neighbors, so
I'm going to do the sensible thing & sleep in it!!!! I didn't have any
trouble getting into it this morning so maybe I'll be able to get out of
it by morning.  If not, I'll have to cut the buttons off--WAAAAAAAAAH!!!!

Hello Kees,
First let me answer question number one:


In March 1993:

ALL RACES:                             BLACK:                     WHITE:

TOTAL:  254,241       TOTAL:     320,36      TOTAL:    190,532

MALE:   124,018       MALE:      150,73      MALE:       93,193

FEMALE:130,223       FEMALE   169,63      FEMALE:   97,340

Answer number two:
In the U.S. Parkinson's disease is considered the underlying cause of
death.  Please refer to the other Statistics & Recap posts for the
definition of Cause-of-Death Classification.

Answer number three:

According to the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Dept. of Commerce
the percentages of Whites is 80.3% and the number of Blacks
is only 12.1% of the TOTAL population of the U.S.
 Using  those percentages, then more Whites would die, since
they outnumber the Blacks by 68.2%.

Answer number four:

It is my understanding that Ali, the world champion boxer  who has
PD, is financing such a project, however, you would be well advised to
ask a boxing fan, who would probably have more information.


I made missed several States in posting my statistics, so later in the
week I will post, both to you and the list, my corrections.

I look forward to the promised statistics from Europe.

As Ever,
