I say "prove it", you say "read this and eat crow", and now you
weren't trying to prove it?  Golly Earl, how can we have a discussion
if you don't mean what you say?

As I asked Mr. Weiser, where is the correlation between speed law
compliance and speed related fatalities on Interstates?  And the
courts don't prove speed kills, they only prove that laws were broken.
Big difference.

Well, what I learned is that you seem to think that a report that
warns you it proves nothing proves something.  Is this how you look at
everything?
