When you come right down to it, Nader's fame is based upon his condemning something which, while certainly not perfect, was being developed and improved. [The turbo Corsa was a heckuva good car. I even raced them--on ice.] To the best of my knowledge, he has never had a driver's license and has never driven any of the vehicles he had an effect on.

Much of his reputation is based on taking stands on things he has had a marginal knowledge of. Somehow, he never caught up with the Pinto, a much deadlier vehicle than the 'vair.

He and his friends have gone out of their way to kill the development of nuclear technology in this country. Instead they rant about running out of organic fuels. Had we followed the logical route of development, we would be approaching fusion as a viable energy source--clean, too.

Nader the thinking man--NOT!
