Not a chance. It happened so fast even my supernaturally-fast reflexes <g> couldn't respond that quickly. I was in a fast left turn when the front found a slick spot so the first things to hit were my left knee and hand, followed by left hip, left shoulder and the left side of my head. >I'm sure Doc is taking good care of you and good to hear the >injuries are not any worse - Doc Lisa and a friend who's a former EMT were the first ones to reach me after the crash, so I was in good hands from the beginning :) Lisa's looking forward to removing my stitches tomorrow and she took my x-rays to one of her orthopedic friends who confirmed that my fiberglass splint is pretty much optional: to be used for comfort and protection. I'm on the comeback trail now! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
