I'm also considering putting sponsons on my car in case I drive off a
bridge and end up in the water. I wonder how many cars do that each year?
They seem to do it a lot in the movies and movies reflect life. A kayak
only has one person in it but a car can be full of people. Hey, what about
school buses full of annoying kids. They should definitely have
sponsons, or not according to your opinion of annoying kids. The only
problem with putting sponsons on school buses, other than your opinion of
annoying kids, is it will raise school taxes. Its nto enough to do a risk
analysis, you have to do a cost/benefit analysis too.


I've decided that your approach is best. My wife and son go costumed as the
Michelan man. The benefits are amazing. Kid is standing in the way when I
drive home, I can just pull into the driveway. Sure, he bounces off the
garage walls a few times, but is completely unharmed. He can't drown, even
if he tries. We are about to do the Golden Gate Bridge stress test of the
device before I turn it loose on the general populous.

There is, I admit, a downside. I can't get either of them into the Honda, so
I have modified it to use gull wing doors. I've the only Honda in Calif.
with Delorean doors. Their extra bulk tends to intefere with steering, but
this isn't imporant because they will be completely safe in any accident.
Too bad about those who failed to realize how compromised my steering was,
but at least my family is safe. Besides, they didn't belong on the sidewalk,
anyway.
