I just heard on local news that the suspected "childhood leukemia cluster" around Fallon may be a false indication caused by some mosquito borne disease brought to the area by military personnel.

Why is it that it is so difficult for most people to accept that many their 
misfortunes are   

the result of random events and, that they are simply losers in "life's 
lottery"? If there was a nuclear power plant located near Fallon, they would 
likely "know" the cause of the leukemia.

        The leukemia cluster a few years ago in and around Fallon, NV, was 
investigated to a fare-thee-well with no conclusive results.
