But hey, it's all what you make of it.
A 14 person sample size from one airline and one hire class is considered an insignificant statistic. I know people who went through basic training and half their unit died in Iraq. That does not mean that half the Army (or anywhere near it) died or will die in Iraq. Your point is interesting but irrelevant.
