Reminiscent of Bill Clinton, if any one asks, "When I saw I don't use a

I'm among those in the "table saw" accident statistics.

Mine wasn't plugged in, nor did it have a blade mounted, but the ER
classed it, for insurance purposes, as a "table saw injury".

Does a splinter off the cut wood count?

Only if you are dumb enough to go to the ER for that splinter to be
removed. ;~)
