When I first heard about this suit, I thought it was about time. The idea that this technology was ignored by the major manufacturers really upset me. If everybody made saws with this as an option the price would go down, and after considering the costs and suffering of an accident, how could I buy anything less for my kids to use?

Now that I hear the details, the boss should lose his business. This guy had no clue what he was doing! If I were Gass I'd think twice about supporting this case. One of these days someone is going to be hurt using a SawStop without the guards and fence. When that case goes to court they will point to his comments on this case and argue that Gass implied that his device made the guard and fence an option. Then we'll see how smug he feels.

Oh, and tvbob, let's not make this a race issue. I know plenty of dumb white folks with missing digits (smart ones too!) The color of your skin has nothing to do with common sense.
