Concerning the Relation between the Cost of Traffic Accidents in a Particular Community and the Conditions Therein [Reply]

I am taking advantage of this occasion when you have been engaged in examining my actuarial offspring to say how much interested I am, after many years of absence from your meetings, to find how well you have found yourselves. You certainly seem to be more intelligent than we used to be and I am glad to see that you are more frivolous. We were oppressed by the fact that we were not entirely sure that there was or ought to be any such thing as a casualty actuary and so we had to seem as important and serious-minded as possible.
