I am one they are trying to protect, and I do not want protection.  I 
just found out about this tool.  I like it and also can't see how anyone 
could make the accident.  I can't even see why making the accident 
creates any problem.  If you are where you don't want to be, can't you 
just leave.  And in this case I cannot see the potential damage that 
could be made.  I suppose I just don't understand.  In any event breach 
of my personal freedoms in any manner is something I do not want.  I 
love the options and hate the considerate decision-making on my behalf.  
Every time I screw up, I learn something I need to know that I will 
learn no other way.  It is always a price I am willing to pay.

I look at my life and think how GOD could forgive some of the things I 
have done.  I don't like the thought of being held accountable and 
prefer forgiveness, but if it doesn't work out that way, I believe I 
should get what I deserve, and be happy when I don't.

Steven
