Poetsheart-
Your analogy reminded me of one I heard in grad school. It was in bad taste, but it made it's point. (warning: bad taste analogy to follow-- skip it if you don't want to be offended). What was said was that the only way a suicidal patient could die from valium would be by getting run over by a truck transporting it. Yes, it was a crass way of teaching us that few patients can die from a purposeful overdose of diazepam, but it made the point.
