RE: BLACK BOXES

  The National Transportation Safety Board recently
 divulged they had covertly funded a project with the
 U.S. auto maker for the past five years, whereby the
 auto makers were installing black boxes in four-wheel
 drive pick-up trucks in an effort to determine, in fatal
 accidents, the circumstances in the last 15 seconds 
 before the crash.
  They were surprised to find in 49 of the 50 states
 the last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal 
 crashes were, "Oh, Sh--!" 
  Only the state of LOUISIANA was different, where 89.3
 percent of the final words were: "Hold my beer and watch this!"
