Suiciders

"Figures released by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development show that South Korea?s suicide rate stood at 18.7 per 100,000 people in 2002 ? up from 10.2 in 1985. In 2002, Japan?s rate was the same as South Korea?s, but the rate in the United States was 10.2 per 100,000." (NY Times)
It's a pretty depressing statistic.
