13 Jun 08 Friday The 13th

Dutch statisticians have found that when Friday falls on the 13th of a month, it is actually a little safer than a regular Friday.

Perhaps this is because many people treat the day with suspicion and tread more carefully.

Insurance companies have fewer claims on Friday the 13th than on other Fridays too.
