Update to that Meme

You know the meme I posted just yesterday about top 8 days for deaths? It already needs to be updated.

Deaths also have a weekly seasonal. I don't think less people die on weekends, but I do think less deaths get reported on the day they happen.

Anyway, yesterday is the new # 3, pushing 9/11 down to number 4, and pushing Pearl Harbor off the bottom of the list.

The new list looks like this:

1. 8,000    Galveston Hurricane (1900) (estimated)
   
2. 3,600    Battle of Antietam (1862) (estimated)
   
3. 3,043    This Wednesday 
4. 2,977    9/11
5. 2,662    Last Wednesday (revised a little)
   
6. 2,647    Last Thursday (revised a little)
   
7. 2,436    Last Friday (revised a little)
   
8. 2,388    Last Tuesday (revised a little)
