No shit, eh?  You know, you'd figure if you checked yer rear-view mirror
and saw a stopped vehicle behind you at a red light that it usually
wouldn't be neccesarry to allocate a roaming eye to the mirror for the
duration of the red...as most sensible people only move forward on a
green light.

But then again, I'm the one to blame because somebody else has their
head up their ass.  Right Rahul?  Right Pitchman?
