The post you've quoted from "Omelet" does not exist on my server. Perhaps
the sender is blacklisted?

At any rate I do not have an online source for the datum in question.
(Contrary to what some seem to believe, there is a great deal of information
which is not on the Internet!) During Jeff Kennett's speech at the Business
Chamber Annual Business Awards ceremony in Sydney on November 26th of this
year, he stated that more people commit suicide every year than die in auto
accidents in Australia. By writing "according to Jeff Kennett" I intimated
as much in my first post to this thread. If you can find a transcript of
that speech somewhere you can verify for yourself, otherwise you'll have to
dig into the records to find the annual number of auto accident fatalities,
the annual number of suicides, and compare the two numbers. I should point
out that Australia's figures for the number of suicides is questionably low,
because many suicides are listed as accidents. I do have a cite for that,
from Mr. Kennett's organisation:
