Even though I tip the scales <I>way</I> further on the Buddha side than the Russell Crowe side, I find it hard to believe someone would -- quite literally -- risk death because, um, someone swerved into his lane?

I learned then to never respond to anyone honking or gesturing at me on the road... I ignore them at all cost... better safe than sorry because there's a lot of nut cases out there and it's only getting worse each year. Only one of the reasons we moved out of the city to the quieter country life.<BR/><BR/>Sorry this happened to you.
