I am not sure that this or the houston videos are all that bad. Moreso, we have a problem with people making issues out of nothing.
On another note. I tried to post a comment on your blog but couldn’t post a link. Your post on the rescue fail reminded me of this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTogixKBAJU
