Medical Fraternity study Life and Death. Shouldn't we study Death and causes of Death.

In http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death Wikipedia link, i feel we should add a
new section "Death Causes" which includes all the possible reasons
which can cause death to happen and the reasons for the death in terms of organ / multiple organ failure/s viz Brain, Heart, Lungs, Kidneys.

For examples :

1. Live electric wire - High Voltages.
2. Bite of Poisonous Snakes, Dogs (if not treated).
3. HIV and Advanced Cancer Diseases. Looks like Other Diseases have vaccines
and medicines available. For example Swine Flu, Bird Flu, Typhoid, Tuberculosis, Chicken Pox, Malaria, Cholera etc.
4. Accidents, Mishaps while traveling viz Road, Air, Ship.
5. Drowning in the ocean, sea, swimming pool, wells etc.
6. Death of a Mother or Baby or extreme cases both during delivery.
7. Malnutrition.
8. Exposing Body to Extreme Cold Temperatures.
9. Carnivorous animals viz tigers, lions, Bear, Cheetah, Leopard etc.
10. Hanging to ceiling fan, tree etc.
11. Natural Death due to old age.
12. Poisonous Gases Inhaled.
13. Poisonous consumption of Solid, Liquid matter.
14. Consumption of Many Sleeping Pills.
15. Landing in a area devoid of air, i.e. death due to insufficient oxygen to breathe.
16. Falling from a High Altitude i.e High Storey Building, Mountain, Cliffs.
17. Fire.
18. Bursting of a Gas cylinder.
19. Bullets.
20. Bombs.
21. Struck by a Heavy Weapon or Heavy Weight Body.
Example : Falling of a Tree on the Head.

And there could be many more reasons for a Human Being Species Death to Happen which i have missed.

We should create a Database, Excel Sheet for Death Causes which will have fields
viz Number, Death Reason/Cause, Name of Organ/s Failure.

Have i missed anything for Death Cause/s ?.

due to the structure not built properly.

O.K. I was going to lamb blast this thread but you touched on something dear to my heart . A love hate relationship cause of my personal slavery in life .
The House
House kill . Fact of life . Get over it .
Engineers spend countless hrs. making it so Houses don't kill . The heroes in Life unrecognized by society as a whole.
They are a good lot for there motivation is not as monetarily driven. We it is by there fee scheduled . But follow this thought. It is no sweet off there back to make safer housing . They have nothing to gain by making a house unsafe so they don't . They do there job to there full capacity.

I have a feeling there is something up setting the apple cart.

About 4 out of five of the engineers I personally know have mental health problems .
I think it is the rest of society that makes them that way is the thing. Depression seems to be at the core. I suspect they are depressed because of the way the rest of the world runs as they see the mechanical failures happening all around them and there hands are tied . They can't fix it . You see my point ? Why they as a profession could be depressed.

This thread reminds me of the guy that started a thread :
What would happen if I hit some one in the head with a hammer , Any volunteers want to help me with my experiment . Take a blow for science sake

O.K. I will add one , If you have not stated this yet chalk it up to my low comprehension.
Hot molten lead falling on you in a primitive steal factory . That is sure to

Thanks for the W.F.H. promo .
Structures kill people not earth quakes

What does your name mean ? Can you give us some kind of definition ?
Memoonamike

Alex look at this for me would you . Looks like my delusion is in full in this one.
Reeks of Monkey God contender .

I tell ya there is a code in the name of things and it is ruled by evolutionary progresses.

It is some type of intelligence. Not like we think of intelligence but something grandeur scale . Like the channels in my Math . Predestine by logical conclusions .

Something about channels . Proper channels.

I got my cohorts screwed one time for not following proper channels . Who got screwed in the end ? Me and my town . WE got screwed . The customer ended up with retribution but Me and my town took the bullet for Georgia Pacific's mistake .

Define your name Memoo<<<< What is your obsession with death also ???

I was trained to be an assassin. Just a fluke that I was . It was for no good reason . My step father was and well that was part of my up bringing . Course he had some mental issues with the metal plate in his head and all. It was not until a particular motor cycle accident thou that his mental issues really started to show up.

Quick shooting now that came natural yet he could shoot a humming bird at a 100 yards with his 357. I own that gun now and well Point like it was the finger of god and pull the trigger . It is good advice . Point like it was your finger . You will hit your target a lot easier trust me .

That is thing about war . Don't matter how many weapons that are shot if they don't hit a target . Like carpet bombing . That is a waste of good ammo .

Anyway <<< Don't kill . It is the Law

Chances are you will die of emphysema before you die of cancer from smoking . You are about guaranteed to get Emphysema . Not so with lung cancer . That is the political wranglings that make you think if you smoke you will get cancer . It just is not true . It is the propaganda to get you to stop smoking . Bad human for smoking and all that . Low life smoker .
You might get cancer and smoking can lead to lung cancer , but technically you get emphysema from smoking and you might get lung cancer . That is a more true statement . You might get throat cancer too.
A surgeon told Me that riding up a down hill sky lift at Lost Trail sky resort on the Continental Divide . He was trying to scare Me into quitting . He was not happy about my smoking . I smoke . Get over it . When I am dead I will surely quit smoking

What was interesting about Haiti ? Haitians don't smoke . It is a little strange . I saw maybe 2 or 3 smokers while in Haiti and I was one of the 3
Talk about standing out . White Guy with smoke coming out his orifices in a sea of blackness . They would point and say Blanca Blanca . Mainly the children

You should be able to condense your list further.

Stressing the biologic organism beyond its established normal conditions, environs, level of radiation bombardments, introduced mutative unknowns beyond current study.

"Boredom has never killed anyone" Most die of hard work. The saying "hard work has never killed anyone" is a lie.

My reply is to mekgal on houses being built to the best of the builders capacity. Yes they build the best they can but in places like pakisran for example that the buildings arn't made of bricks and morter but of concrete and metal poles. The poles go through the middle of the concrete giving the concrete support. But a few years ago an earthquake destroyd these buildings easily because the metal rods wernt enough to hold the shaking buildings thus resulting in complete destruction to many buildings and killing many people.. Bad design.
