Anything that takes a driver's attention away from the task       at hand is a threat to public safety.              > It even includes paper maps, I might add.              Paper maps--clumsy to use, difficult to read--should be near the very       top of the list of items forbidden to use while driving.              --       I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that       you will say in your entire life.              usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
