Oh gee -- the USA ARS License numbers are decreasing about 2% in 5 years

Lessee...4,812/699,580.... Actually it's less than 1% loss in a little under 5
years!

At that rate in 500 years, we will be a dead dodo (Ain't statistics wundeful
wunderful?)

Yup. How about this one: If a number decreases 2% every 5 years, it will be
down to just about half the original number in 170 years.
