It's a bit like making a new year's resolution to stop
dropping litter. Even though you had no idea of the
amount of litter you were dropping in 2004, holding
on to your litter and disposing of it properly in 2005
will mean you have reduced your littering, however
much littering you did prior to 2005. You don't need
numbers to know you're reducing your litter, and the
same goes for collateral deaths, so don't let the likes
of 'usual suspect' tell you any different while he tries
to belittle and dismiss your efforts.
