It is in the nature of these things, like car accidents that they are occasional random occurrences, which is why an analysis of statistics is more useful than stories of personal experience.
Glad to hear it. We have been burgled many times in even my immediate family. So we must be in different subsets. What is the difference in our subsets?
Statistics uses sampling. We analyze our sampling techniques by direct observation - which we often describe as personal experience.
