But I'm not giving up my car knitting. At least I'm generally doing it with circs, which seem like they might be safer.<br /><br />On an NPR note (I listen to their program on Saturday mornings), Garrison Keillor had knitting humor on the Prairie Home Companion in tonight's episode of Lives of the Cowboys. We were all in the car on the way to dinner and laughed ourselves silly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32804163.post-38429304938310453472007-01-06T18:17:00.000-06:002007-01-06T18:17:00.000-06:00It's all about the velocity of the "wind" coming f...It's all about the velocity of the "wind" coming from the airbag. Think about tornadoes—I found this online:<br />"Tornadoes can... drive straw and blades of grass into trees and telephone poles." (Source: http://www.wunderground.com/tornadoFAQ.asp)<br /><br />Not sure how strong airbag wind is, but it may be able to do serious damage. Scary!Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01052659387592324948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32804163.post-16885432565923758582007-01-06T16:41:00.000-06:002007-01-06T16:41:00.000-06:00Yikes!

Something to think about. Also, over the years, I've heard Tom and Ray mention airbags that spontaneously deployed while parked in a driveway. It's rare, but it can happen. More fodder for the phobia mill!<br /><br />I guess knitting should be a backseat activity!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04278529449974055377noreply@blogger.com
