Does this mean we can't use the "safer than driving to the airport"

I realize Gary may not be wholly serious in this comment, but for
those newer to the sport, Bruno Gantenbrink's 1993 talk on this
precise topic should be of interest to all of us. Our sport is
tragically unforgiving of those who fail to take it's risks seriously.

DG has been kind enough to archive Bruno's lecture on their site.
