Time for something out of the ordinary.... Article: Boating Deaths Avoidablie with a Little Common Sense http://www.centralohio.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/BA/20070527/NEWS01/705270304/1002
Gist: boating + alcohol + poor judgement - ability to swim = probable death by drowning
Not be insensitive, but: Seriously? These things seem like common sense, don't they? Any sober person would tell you you probably shouldn't drink on a boat, nor should you succumb to the thought that a lifevest is just too much trouble - particularly if you can't otherwise keep yourself afloat.
Evolution: is at work here. 'Nuff said.
On tubestock: Here at Dartmouth, there used to be a summer tradition called "Tubestock." Turns out my graduating class is associated with its demise, but really, it wasn't our fault. It was a bunch of drunk grad students who decided to go swimming. One of them drowned. The college was then forced to take a closer look at the whole tradition of Tubestock. This is what I'm told, at least.
Upon closer inspection: The college decided, against some 08's nonsensical objections (something to the effect of "We have a right to have tubestock!") that Tubestock is far from a right of students. It is illegal in a number of ways; local police was just kind enough to look the other way for oh-so-many years. Turns out gathering that many people at the river is illegal, as are the shoddily constructed rafts, underage drinking, and of course, the comibination of shoddily constructed rafts + underage drinking on said shoddily constructed rafts. Huzzah for Ivy League sensibilities.
