I can understand that.

Of course in looking at the complete picture it's a slightly different story, and as you (and I) basically said at least the dead guy's family is compensated and then some for whatever earnings the guy would have made them.

Now if you'll excuse me I just put 10 shakes of tabaso on my chilifries, and am about to singe my taste buds. :D
