Also, we don't know what else the Coke drinkers might be doing that contributes to their cancer. It might be the coke. Or it might be that these coke drinkers are all putting Cap'n Morgan in the drink, and the good Cap'n is causing the cancer. Or it could be another factor, altogether. Perhaps those coke drinkers are adding rum, having several of these concoctions, and then having risky sexual encounters and THAT is what is causing the cancer. Not that I am a huge fan of Coke in general. I'm just saying...

Besides, it is a well-known fact that 78% of all statistics are made up on the spot.
