You are probably right. I took a look at the mood of that site and discredited it right off the bat. Looking at overall stats from other sources 'seems' to show similar numbers, but not quite as exaggerated.
I do believe those numbers are skewed, especially the numbers from 10-30 years ago.

There are alot more to these figures than meets the eye, using these figures to paint an entire race as below par is a bit misguided. Kind of sad to me.
