1. Horrible.....
Similar but not as tragic event happened to a high school friend of mine and his family back in 1970. Same thing only coming back from grandmothers funeral when a dump truck ahead of them and over a hill decided to do a U turn in the road. They hit it,no one was killed but all of them were in the hospital for a time.

3. Yes. Over 2,300 American soldiers killed for an unjust war.
Over 100,000 Iraqis killed as the result of collateral damage...

Over 1,000,000 killed in Sudan as the result of international neglect...

Need I go on?

7. The Reeve Family
Edited on Thu Mar-09-06 09:08 PM by mahatmakanejeeves
Poor Will Reeve. Thirteen years old, and both parents have died in the last eighteen months. A grandmother too.

Edited:

After checking the map, I see that I have driven on that road, no doubt including the very part where the accident occurred.
