According to this piece on the RTÉ news site, entitled "Figures Show Rise in Abductions," if you live in Ireland you should be very very afraid. Apparently "Garda statistics show that the number of abductions increased by 50% in the first three months of this year compared to the same period last year."

The rise in abductions in the first quarter of this year, from six to nine, means that you suffer an appalling 0.00021% chance of being kidnapped. As opposed to the far more acceptable 0.00014% chance in the same period last year.

What an informative headline. I'm heading for my bunker.
