Thanks for the links, I read the “It Didn't Start With Dateline” piece before and seen the segments on 60 Minutes.

Over the years I've owned and driven Pintos and thought them a too light tin box but no more so than the old VW Beetles, which I also owned several times.
During the millions of miles I've likely driven and hundreds of serious wrecks I've seen I can recall one fire as a result of a rear end collision and that was when a heavy Cadillac hit a small Japanese car.

Is it any wonder that honest dry eyes won't blink once when these organizations close down for good.
