This is something i was thinking about at work, which gives you some idea as to how boring being a postman is and why so many letters go missing :D

***Disclaimer: The following questions are hyperthetical and any simlarity to real people, objects or events is purely coincidental***

Question 1:
If a car was released that was excellent in everyway efficient, fast, low polluting, etc but just had one problem in a 12 month period three of them had exploded randomly. Noone new for sure why, there where various theories as to why some said they wouldn't explode along as you didn't go over 5500 rpm or if you didn't fill the tank over 3/4 full. No had been killed but some had been injured. Would you do any of the following:
A. Buy one?
B. Drive one?
C. Be a Passenger in one?
D. Stand even anywhere near one?

Consider your answers for a second then answer the following question:

Question 2:
If a company released an air bottle for paintball that would shave a little weight off your set-up but over a 12 month period three had exploded, noone new for sure why, some people theorized that the bottles only exploded if filled too quickly or filled above 3000 psi. No had been killed but some had been injured. Would you do any of the following:
A. Buy one?
B. Use one?
C. Recomend a teammate use one?
D. Stand anywhere near the fill station when one was being filled?

How do your answers to question 1 and question 2 compare?

Just out of curiosity.

Q1 i think yes i would be a passenger, and i would stand near one but wouldnt buy one, because of the fact that 3 exploded. I would never buy one; but it wasnt the drivers fult, producing a car that shouldnt go over the a certian rpm is dangerous and shouldnt be delt with.

Q2 i think its also diffrent with an air bittle 4500psi is extremanly drangerous any way regardles of the bottle type your could hav the most scure bottle and you could get unlucky nothing can be curtian to contain 4500psi, buy a stako no but 2 insedents out of 1000(just a guess) bottles made wouldnt put me of beeing nxt to some one when filling.
