![]() "John Ousterhout" wrote in message ... I was skeptical about airbags in autos, but I've been convinced of their effectiveness. I was also skeptical of the BRS but I'm becoming convinced of their effectiveness. Did you also acuse pilots of flying carelessly once they had seat belts? Actually, (IIRC), there was a surge in people thinking themselves invincible when seatbelts started becoming commonplace in cars (1960's). Same thing with St. Christopher medals, I'd imagine. :~) |

Common talk back in the 60's; TV ad promo's. You know, things did happen before you were born and before there was an internet. :~) |

Tom,
Common talk back in the 60's; TV ad promo's. What proof! So we must have aliens amongst us, too, I guess. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

You may cite a newspaper or magazine if you wish. However "common talk" is unacceptable and you know it. Had you asked for corroboration and received "common talk" as an answer, I would expect you to reply "bull****". - J.O.- |
