First of all, what does any of that CRAP you've been sending me have to do with driving courteously?! My complaint wasn't that you mothers are passing me, it's that you disregard the speed limit even when there's slush or snow all over the road, which you drive on like you own. To the fellow who asked when the last time I had to get pulled out of a ditch by one of you guys: The answer is NEVER, because I don't drive in such a manner as to put myself in one. To the fellow who presumes that my car slides all over the place and is therefore a hazard to others: my front-wheel-drive Honda Accord is as surefooted a car as I've ever driven in snow, but that doesn't mean I drive with impunity on a slippery pavement. To the rest of you: I stated that you should ignore the article if you are one of the few courtious drivers who happens to own such a vehicle. I know there are some of you out there. That you chose to flame on anyway proves that you are a discourtious, slush-spraying, maniac roadhog who shouldn't be driving a kiddie car, let alone two tons of rampaging iron! AAAAARGHHHHH! Go plow a driveway or something. @#$%%&*! -- Bob Fishell ihnp4!ihu1g!fish
