M&PK are just too stoopid to adjust their headlights properly - so we have      
laws limiting us to 55W beams and DOT lenses.  does this make you feel safer?   
M&PK are just too stoopid to buckle their own seatbelt.  now we have laws       
making no-seatbelt usage a primary offense.  does this make you feel safer?     
should i go on?                                                                 
can you say mandatory helmet laws - for passenger vehicles?  don't bet against  
it!  someday a kid will get busted for riding his big wheel in the driveway     
without a helmet.  all of our cars will have a variety of strobes, lights,      
sirens and beepers so that everybody can see and hear everybody.  except        
S/N won't change a bit.                                                         
i think i'm capable of deciding whether or not i need visibility while i        
wipe the glass!
