I wasn't sighing because it's been hashed out before, I was sighing again for 
yet another person who is incapable of THINKING before pounding out his 
jumbled thoughts.
Let's explore this for a moment.  You're driving down the street, see a bunch 
of cops chasing some guy who jumps in a car and takes off.  Some cop comes up 
to you, opens your door, tells you to get out, that he needs your car.  So 
you're going to do what?  Have a discussion about the legality of him doing 
this, or want to debate it?  Do you THINK for a moment that if you're car 
gets smashed to bits that you WON'T be compensated for it?  See what I mean?  
If the people who watch too much TV and Tommy Lee Jone's movies would 
excersice their brains and THINK about stuff like this, they realize they 
already have the answers and just provoke a good "sigh...." from others who 
have already figured it out...hence the SIGHHHH.......
