Please ask your "Are you Firstname Lastname?" question by noon EST Weds.
I never said nothing about Nazis in that question. Time to ponder.

Todd Beamer
Killed in the crash of United 93 on 9-11, and immortalized for his comment "Let's roll!" just before storming the cockpit with others: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todd_Beamer
Uh, a plane crash is DEFINITELY a "transportation accident"!
It wasn't an accident. It was purposefully steered into the ground by the hijackers, according to the 9-11 Commission, to prevent the recapture of the aircraft.
Plane didn't land safely! I'll be at a family event today. Will have tablet, but unsure how much I'll be online.
Not landing safely is different from an "accident." It was no accident.
Start the next round, if you like.
I actually was surfing all night!
