I have been reassesing my inclination to leave my house.

Every day more and more drivers seem to be out get me. Drive by shootings
are now a away of life in some cities. The pollution idex is high and
rising. The India and and Pakistan have the bomb and want to use it. NO one
is doing aything about it.

So what happens if I have a heart attack while driving? Suppose I have an
acident and there is no one in my car to pull me out? What if I get caught
by a sudden  tornado while driving across southern Ontario? What about my
big fear that my next transfusion will be laced with Hepititus C?

Hey, paddling solo is the only safe thing I do.

OK, just joking a bit and not making fun of George at all. I understand his
feelings. I guess we all have to put these things in our personal
perspective.

Cheers,
John Winters
