Shark attacks fall as humans fight back

So I was browsing around on Yahoo and this was one of the story headlines of the day.... Shark attacks fall as humans fight back. This struck me funny. I had to investigate. So I did.

I read the first paragraph...

"Shark attacks dropped in 2005 because people are fighting back more often when threatened and the ranks of ocean predators are thinning, a University of Florida report said on Monday."

After I was done laughing I went on to paragraph two...

"Worldwide there were 58 shark attacks in 2005, down from 65 a year earlier, and fatalities fell to four from seven, said George Burgess, director of the International Shark Attack File housed at the university's Florida Museum of Natural History."

Here is a thought!

Could it be that sharks are just not attacking people and that us fighting back has nothing to do with the lack of attacks!! Come on... the number of attacks for 2004 was 65 and for 2005 it was 58 attacks. Hardly worth posting a university study that comes up with some lame theory. I just had to post this blog because I personally am sick of these university studies that are total bull. If you look at it you can make a university study or theory about anything in the world so lets get real.

There is my two cents about University studies!!!

University and study is an oxymoron. College is such a waste of space.
