Default O/T: SawStop

That is certainly your choice. Probably won't be one in mine either, since
I don't see the need to replace my saw. All of that said - Lew is
completely wrong in his statement that the insurance industry is driving
this. Evidence, please...


If it will help you, then *fear* of the insurance companies is driving
it. Fear of increased rates from lawsuits. Fear of having all
insurance terminated. It doesn't matter how you slice it, when the end
result is money, or the very real possibility of losing it because of
an injury, then there are only two choices. Comply or go broke/out of
business.
