dead american campaign

further to my campaign to get some focus on the milestone of 2000 dead americans in iraq, we have a timing update due to the unfortunate events of the last few days.

my previous calculation was:

dead americans so far = 1913
no of dead americans before the 2000 milestone = 87
approximate # of days till the 2000 milestone (assuming the same rate) = 44
approximate date of the 2000 milestone = september 15.

im gonna assume that the latest deaths were a hiccough (in terms of the rate) - but it does change the timing.
the new schedule:

dead americans so far = 1821+113 = 1934
no of dead americans before the 2000 milestone = 66
approximate # of days till the 2000 milestone (assuming the same rate) = 33
approximate date of the 2000 milestone = september 4
