Hi,
Today i was driving my car ,going to get my kids at school.I was passing
by a tunnel when suddenly the car in front of me  braked very hard.I was
very close to him and i remember that the only thing that came to my
mind was "Don't lock the brakes,Don't lock the brakes"(sounds
familiar????),it was instinctive.My car stopped within 1 inch or less
from the front car.
So Thanks GPL to really improving my real daily driving and for giving
me some very good arguments to show my wife that staying in front of the
computer for long hours, really saves a lot of money. :-)

PS: Although a 67 volks beetle ,that was close behind, was not able to
avoid hitting me hard, my car didn't suffer any damage.I guess i was
riding on the Novice damage model. The beetle was severely damaged and
had to retire.  :-)

And you weren't too close to the leading car, looking for that sweet
slipstream _because of_ GPL? :)
