    Well the thing is the wheel in a crash is a large protrusion. It can just cause a lot of damage, even if its just rubber (though it's wrapped around a steel wheel) The force is not distributed well in a crash. I like the design of the older volvos (however ugly) where the bumpers literally were for bumping. They had gas shocks behind the bumper plate. So if you got rear-ended and there wasn't any structural damage you could just reset the shocks and be good as new.

    I think this is exactly why they are trying to phase out the rear hanging spare. Your spare tire destroyed a TRUCK, any other normal car wouldn't have put a dent in it! And you didn't even have the transmission engaged. So a truck pushed you and he got a torn up front end. I believe its not your insurance company that is worried, it's the other guy's.

    Thanks for the info. Thats probably the cause. It's pretty interesting to take old documents and figure out what was being referenced in the correct historical context.

  24. Re:Squeal like a pig.... on Osama Bin Laden Reported Dead, Body In US Hands · · Score: 1

    It was most probably due to lack of refrigeration. Someone in charge probably saw some pork laying around spoiling and maybe saw some worms on it or something like that and reasoned that pork (and not other meats) is foul and carries disease. This was put into decree and the tradition passed down throughout the generations, from the time of Moses to Mohammed.
    Traditions passed through the religious history in that region are interesting. Such as the multiple wives thing. Most people probably have heard that muslims can have 4 wives. But if you read the text there really is no such thing. When the book was written, in that time period it was common for wealthy men to have many wives. So in the Qur'an there is an attempt to concede to this tradition with a caveat. You may have up to 4 wives, but you must not look at any of them with a different eye than the others. You basically cant have different feelings towards them. You cant love one more than the others, there are other many restrictions on this. So the words are there that you may take multiple wives but the restrictions are impossible.
    This was considered a progressive movement at the time btw. Just as Christianity was progressive at its time.

  25. Re:Mission Accomplished on Osama Bin Laden Reported Dead, Body In US Hands · · Score: 2

    if you actually read the Qur'an, where it mentions no pork, it just explains that you can't eat pork, nor the blood of an animal and that God's name must be recited in the slaughtering. Does not say no touching, that would just be an interpretation by a crazy fundamentalist.
    Most people that I have encountered who claim this or that religious doctrine says this or that most probably has not studied the material.
