you arent trying to ascertain anything. you are stating as fact that

Nobody said it doesn't work; in fact, the consensus of Da Wreck's
previous discussions of SawStop is that it *does* work, and is pretty
damn
impressive
besides.

Nobody said it doesn't exist, either. However, it *is* a fact that this
machine is not yet (or is only *very* recently) in actual production.

what i was responding to was a question about whether or not more
injuries
would occur because people put too much trust in the system. which i
think
is false. im not claiming any actual hands were saved or cut off.

Excuse me -- you *did* claim *exactly* that: "for every fool that thinks
they
are invincible and may get hurt due to lack of respect, there are others
(more
people) that didnt get their hand cut off because the sawstop worked"


and you are only posting the part of the discussion you need to make
yourself correct. let me put the whole thing back in context without some
creative snipping. you're the second person to take the word NO off the
front which makes what i said into a blind statement not the answer to
someones specific question.:

(start here)
(the question i was responding to was
Gotta wonder, though... will this type of technology actually
*increase* injuries because of a reduction in respect for the tool?

(my answer was)

no. for every fool that thinks they are invincible and may get hurt due
to lack of respect, there are others (more people) that didnt get their
hand
cut off because the sawstop worked. in fact in many cases it would
probably even save the fool.

not to mention anyone who thinks the safety device is a substitute for
thinking is gonna get hurt no matter what eventually...

(stop here)

i was speaking in context of answering that question. i think all but the
most hardheaded can see clearly that i wasnt actually claiming any hands
cut
off or not cut. just making a comment on whether or not safety devices
cause accidents by making people complacent.

No, it's not clear at all _what_ you intended. Try "No. For every fool who
thinks he is invincible and may get hurt due to lack of respect there would
be others that didn't get their hand cut off because the sawstop worked."

now step off please.
