Default Nailgunitis.

Some plonker from nearby here has just been on the news after shooting
himself in the heart with a nail gun.

I just wanted to reassure all and sundry that it wasn't me.

On a serious note:

The report stated some 1/4 million people are injured each year playing
silly buggers with DIY. Some 70 or so die.

What I was thinking was all the money we save DIOS and a few silly
accidents wipe it out.

And how much was spent on saving him that could have saved a village
full of children in Niger.

(Not that I really think there is any correlation in the lines of
thought with anything that might be possible in reality. Nor do I
begrudge the effort and ability to save anyone anywhere.)
