Simple Logic

It seems these days that every plane accident involves only highly experienced pilots.

Therefore, we should avoid boarding a plane unless the pilot is not so experienced.

I do not mean to make light of plane accidents. If you read my work, you will know I place a very high priority on human life.

However, here is another thought on logic, if you will. We are told that drivers under the influence cause a third of all fatal accidents. Therefore, we need to keep all sober drivers off the road. They cause two-thirds of all fatal accidents.

It’s simple logic, and it’s simply wrong.
