Default did a stupid thing again...

Cutting up some 3/4" plywood on the TS into 16" squares for a daughter's
school project. Absentmindedly, I ran a piece through using the fence - for
a crosscut. The blade picked that sucker up and tossed it at a hundred
miles an hour into me (well, it felt that fast..). Hit me in the lower left
abdomen just inside from the hip bone. Got a big nasty bruise and two
bloody scrapes. I had jeans on, and it ripped a hole in them. I shudder to
think about the damage to me if it had hit a little closer to center.......

My very adequate crosscut sled was leaning against the wall 6 feet away....
