How many people have died because of soft-focus lenses and makeup and plastic surgery?

Linking
I did an experiment today. Starting at Google, without typing, and without clicking any ads, I tried to see how many pages I'd have to go through to get to this site. The results were very interesting:

http://www.google.ca
http://www.google.ca/options/
http://catalogs.google.com/
http://catalogs.google.com/catalogs?category=/Computers
http://catalogs.google.com/catalogs?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8...
http://www.oreilly.com/
http://www.oreillynet.com/weblogs/
http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/3260

I'll do similar exercises in the future, with better documentation, like what links I actually click in each page to get to the next one, and so forth. I find it interesting that it took that few pages to get to mine. I'll start from different sites in the future.
