Banning Bathtubs

According to the LA Times (June 30 pg B11), on average 200,000 people are treated in emergency rooms each year for bathtub injuries (snicker). They point out that this number is twenty times more than those treated for injuries due to mishandling of fireworks.

So, clearly, we should ban all bathtub recreation and settle instead for sponge baths. That'd be safer (and possibly much more fun).
