Perhaps what he meant to say is "no reason for a thinking man to get hurt at the lathe"?


Aww... here we go. It took a while for it to get here, but finally the
inner SawStop has come out from someone.

If you are intelligent enough to think about what you are doing, you
won't get hurt. So what does that mean in your world? The flip side
of your hypothesis is the people that should expect to get hurt are the
ones that won't think, can't think, aren't able to think, or don't know
how to think? Only non-thinkers get hurt at the lathe?

So accidents don't happen, much less bad accidents don't happen to
those that think. All you have to do is "thinking man" and you have
"no reason" to worry about being hurt while using the lathe.

Yeah, right.


From Webster's:


Main Entry: ac·ci·dent
Pronunciation: 'ak-s&-d&nt, -"dent; 'aks-d&nt
Function: noun

1 a : an unforeseen and unplanned event or circumstance b : lack of
intention or necessity : CHANCE met by accident rather than by design


So... can you think your way throught the unforseen? Obviously you
don't believe accidents exist, perhaps only in a word.

What a load.
