Hello Joe - 

CA>>> Not unlike mandatory 'fins' (ala the late 50's and early
CA>>> 60's) being installed onto all existing automobiles
CA>>> because the gov says so with no justification whatsoever. 

RJT>>  Huh? What the heck are you talking about here? 

CA>> Tailfins ala '59 Chevy etc. A useless appendage that
CA>> actually could lift the Chevy rear wheels off the road at
CA>> around 100mph. 

JN> Those fins are what started Ralph Nader on his safety kick
JN> after a few people were actually "stabbed" by them. They
JN> are now totally, 100%, absolutely illegal on newer cars. 

I met a body builder who told me he had snapped his chest in
half when chasing another guy around a '57 Chevy he fell onto
the tailfin hitting his breastbone and snapping his chest.
Sounded horrible but he seemed OK at the time we were speaking.
