A few things I need enlightenment on:
1: I was watching Band of Brothers a few days ago and it was the episode where Wild Bill and Joe Toy lose their legs. Now, earlier in the episode Hoobler shot himself in the leg, severed the artery and bled to death in a matter of minutes. Later when Joe and Bill are hit by the arty shell, their legs are blown practically all the way off, thus severing the artery right? Why didn't Joe and Bill bleed out and die? The WHOLE leg is gone, the artery is definitely severed, yet they bled very little. Hoobler takes a tiny bullet and is gone nearly instantly.
2: Why is it that only people who operate computers and people who consume drugs are called "users"? We "use" lots of things everyday, yet in these instances we are called "consumers".
3: Why is it that car insurance is the only thing I can think of that is mandatory to purchase for something that [/b]might[/b] happen? You might get hurt and need medical, but it is not mandatory, your house may burn down, but home insurance is not mandatory. you may say it is for the other persons protection but I would say to you that when jumping out of a plane a parachute is not legally mandatory yet your body may injure someone on the ground. So what gives.
