What a loss. I can't believe the lack of a long run-off area there...even our little country dragstrip here has about a kilometer of dirt road off the end of the quarter, and we would certainly never put a crane at the end of the strip like that. Sad loss, rest in peace Scott.

I don't know... I'd say he probably went out with his foot on the BRAKE. No?
