To you it is an anecdote - to me it's a fact.

It's anecdotal.

Would anyone like to hazard a guess at how many children between the
ages of 0 and 9 died as a result of electrocution in 2010?

How about in 2009?
Or 2008?
2007?
2006?

Answer: 2010, 1; 2009, 0; 2008, 0; 2007, 0; 2006, 0

The entire purpose of "Fatally Flawed" appears to be transparently
pointless. Firstly there really is no evidence linking the use of socket
covers to the death of children in the age range likely to be affected.
There's not one recorded death involving the use of a socket cover in
five years of data collection. There's only one death in that time
caused by electrocution and the cause of that death was not forseen by
"Fatally Flawed" nor was any advice given *before the event* that could
have prevented that tragedy.

Meanwhile 20 children a year are battered to death by their parents.

If there's a cause worth having a web campaign for, it's to put an end
to violence against children. Attempting to prevent one death every five
years (and that's likely to be an over-estimate of the death rate) by
complaining about something that was not implicated in that death is
bizarre.
