30 days in the hole [WARNING-TOPIC DRIFT]

[Fringe Ryder <fringe@ai.net>]

Just a quick note to say that I'm going to drop the topic, unless 
readers ask for rebuttals (which I have, with cites, in abundance.)  
While I firmly believe (of course) that my side is the side with fact 
and logic, I'm sure Phil feels the same.  The Q-List is the wrong
venue for this debate.  My point at the time was merely that
the two countries differ in how they treat drivers on cell phones
for the same reason they treat other behaviors that could cause
someone else harm differently.
