Chris, be releived that you drive the car (Corvair) that according to 
our friend Ralph Nader, was used as the correct example of where a gas 
tank should be located during the investigation of the Pinto gas tank 
fire problems!

I wish I had seen the TV show where this happened. An employee of mine 
saw it in the mid 90's. Ralph was on with Michael Medved and Michael 
said something about Corvair and Ralph came back with that piece of history!
