That figure is astounding to me. It's much higher than I figured. I bow down to your superior knowledge in this area.

I'm guessing it includes x-rays at the dentist, which are routine every 2-3 years. Still, it's much higher than I thought.

I take back my "horseshit" comment and embrace your "slightly hyperbolic" characterization. Dammit.
