       Dogbert sits on the hassock watching television.  A newscaster says,
       "The budget for education was cut ten million dollars."   Dogbert
       thinks, "Is that a big percentage?  Does it make any difference?"  
       The reporter says, "Congress considered a music safety law after
       studies showed a ten percent increase in piano-related deaths."  
       Dogbert wonders, "How does that compare to other health risks?  Should
       I be concerned?"   The newscaster continues, "Lawmakers debated a bill
       to lower capital gains tax rates . . ."   Dogbert thinks, "What do
       most economists think?  Would it stimulate the economy much?  Should I
       care?"   The newscaster continues, "A new poll show that many voters
       have strong opinions on these issues despite the fact that we provide
       no useful contextual data."   Dogbert walks away with his ears
       standing up.  He thinks, "I've got to stop watching scary shows right
       before bedtime."
