That's the wrong image. It's supposed to say: 98 DAYS SINCE NEWTOWN - 2,244 DEAD

Well that is weird, because when I went to the page the first time the newest numbers were there

The counting of the days with the changing tally is what makes it so compelling.

That's from the link you provided.
It had me scratching my head too. But, even 37 in one day is astounding.

Counting the days since Newtown with a running tally of gun deaths.

(36,974 posts)10. Well that is weird, because when I went to the page the first time the newest numbers were there
automatically and didn't show any other numbers.
Perhaps it has to do with how fast everyone's connection is, or something?

(49,445 posts)13. That's about right.
Well, "correct", at least.
13,000 homicides a year, give or take, translates into about 36 homicides a day. About 24 will be done with guns (21 with handguns), and about 12 with "other".
