Bowers article hit home for me. The saw with no guide was the reason my brother-in-law lost one of his fingers. He did not sue the company because he realized it was his fault, but people everyday don’t see this when they become injured. Some companies do comply with OSHA and other safety precautions, but there are still some businesses out there that do not. Why has this still gone on? I also like Matthew’s comments about the “bright one” that lit a match to look into a gas tank; I guess they learned as they lived. ---Pam Petzold | Bowers article hit home for me.

| − | These examples of injuries intrigued me. I felt like I was watching that show "100 ways to die". To add to Matthew's point, how smart do you have to be to know to not light a match and put it inside a gasoline tank? Obviously productive labor is cut off because of these people's lack of common sense. I know it sounds terrible but thats just ridiculous. | + | These examples of injuries intrigued me.
