"A little rubbing"?????????
With this sentence, two things become crystal clear:
1) You have never watched a NASCAR race. Ever. Not in person, not on TV.
2) You are not paying any attention to the people who *have*.
Uh, Doug? How many G's, in what direction, are needed to set off
an airbag in a passenger car? How often does that happen in racing?
You'll only see that if you hit something stationary, or going a
drastically different direction.
Here's your sign.
You might want to hang onto it for a bit. Airbags are only going to
go off with enough force _and_ with that force in the right direction.
I meant only to point out the absurdity of his characterization of the
contact between NASCAR racers as "a little rubbing". Anyone who had ever
seen a NASCAR race, even once, would know that it's a *lot* more than
that. Which adds a little ironic humor to his characterization of the
rest of us as a bunch of armchair quarterbacks or whatever it was.
