Re: Naut
Troosh, yes, I do get a lot of stuff out of Maclean's, which is really a pretty good mag, and the only non-scientific one I read. Other than that, it's Scientific American, Discover, Nature and such. I don't do a lot of surfing, I'm a little old-fashioned that way, I prefer the printed page in front of me rather than the one on the monitor...

Every time I read one of your "snippets" I think - "Where does he find this stuff"?  I have noted that extractions often come from McLeans but do you surf the net for news stories or are you a voracious reader of newspapers, magazines, etc.?  Anyway, the coffin promotion is an excellent idea!  It's all about marketing so whatever it takes to get our heads out of the sand is good in my books.

His offer extends only to drivers who kill themselves while at the wheel drunk. Tacky? I couldn't disagree...

Another soap box. You know if you are killed in an auto accident it will be by a drunk driver or a driver who is not drunk. Either way you are dead as a door knob. The family of that person receiving his casket loves that person as much as he loved his brother. Some people are tacky!

I dunno, a coffin? Maybe I'd buy one of those fiberboard things
for a quick visit to the crematorium. All that alcohol should burn quick...  Not very PC of me. Forget I mentioned it.
