All I get is a blank screen, and at the bottom of the "Forums" page there is no statistics for chat...

Doctors (A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000. (B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are 120,000. © Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171 Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health and Human Services. Now think about this: Guns (A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000. (Yes, that's 80 million) (B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups is 1,500. © The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .0000188 Statistics courtesy of FBI So, statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners! Remember, 'Guns don't kill people, doctors do.' FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, but almost everyone has at least one doctor. This means you are over 9,000 times more likely to be killed by a doctor as by a gun owner!! Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!!!!! Out of concern for the public at large, we withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention!

Today while I was in my statistics class I came across some intresting points in our book. (Yeah, I'm nerdy and read the book.) Anyway the following statistics were noted under the heading "Quality in Services" * The average company never hears from more than 90% of its unhappy customers. For every complaint it receives, the company has at least 25 customers with problems, about 1/4 of which are serious. * Of the customers who make a compaint, more than half will do business again with the organization if their complaint is resolved. If the customer feels that the complaint was resolved quickly, this figure jumps to about 95%. *The average customer who has had a problem will tell 9 or 10 others about it. customers who have had complaints resolved satisfactorily will only tell about 5 others. * It costs 6 times more to get a new customer than to keep a current customer. Now as we were covering these points I couldn't help but think on all the complaints that I've seen here about Yamaha's apparent lack of care when keeping up to date with the latest changes and all the other posts I've seen where a member has said farewell to their Venture cause they want something that is offered on other bikes but not on the venture even though Yamaha has the tech to implement it. So I'm curious as to what features Yamaha has to implement in order to keep from loosing more ventureriders. Thinking back I'd say that the list would include but not limited to: Fuel Injected Cassette Deck Replacement First Gen Gearing (power range and such without the 2nd gear issue) Kind of curious as to what others think on any of the above topics.
