To the person who dedicated the poem to Ralph Nader (I'm not sure how
to post followups to an article to a different group):

Do you really want Pintos that explode when rear-ended? Baby cribs that
catch baby's head? Defective toys that come apart in nice, swallowable
pieces so toddlers can choke? Faulty pilot lights that start fires?
I'd rather put up with the "do-gooders" than leave my safety (or my
children's) to those whose main interest is selling, not safety.
