An interesting site I thought I'd share. I haven't gone through and played around with it, but it looks to be interesting:

Thanks for sharing - I like how the site explains some of what is going in the scroll on the lower left of the page.

Try to remember one simple point:
The world ain't really that violent compared to the way it was 10 years ago, or 20 years ago, or 30 years ago, everyone just likes to think they live in a particularly difficult or dangerous period of time because it makes them feel better in a convoluted sort of way.
Personally, I'd take things the way they are over the way things in the 70s were any day, and I'm not just talking about the fashion, terrifying as it was.
