[Milsurplus] For God's Sake- Stop and Think

[antqradio at juno.com]

Imagine your reaction if the shock had traveled through your chest
and caused heart fibrillation.  That is assuming you would survive.

Remember when seat belts were first available, as options, in cars?
There were all kinds of stories of people being trapped in accidents.
But those cases, if true, were in the minority.

There will always be exceptions, those freak accidents, but the hand
thing seems to work for me.  As long as I'm not distracted by it!

Regards,
Jim
