Statistics

A lot of the time when new personnel (especially scientists) transfers in to Atlantis, their first instinct upon hearing about what's happened in the few short years the expedition has been in the Pegasus Galaxy is to conduct statistical analysis on it, or hang humorous posters on the walls: 23 days since the last Wraith attack, 16 days since a team was last imprisoned. But most of the time, they drop it quickly: the statistics aren't comforting. All too often the posters read 0 days since the last catastrophic event. All they do is drive home the fact that anybody could be next.
