Re: [ST] did this guy deserve to wreck?

Well (I know, deep subject :-). Here in Dallas, and when
I was in death valley, I have seen temperatures up to 110
deg F, and except for my butt sticking to the seat (yet
another subject better left alone) I have yet to
have any such sticking problems. If it is true,
he probably has a great product liability suit ahead of him :-)

All in all, I would have to rate this as high in the bait
scale of 0-10.
