I don't know how many of you listen to talk radio, but this evening when I 
went to pick up the kids from the athletic bus after football and 
cross-country practice, I turned on The Hugh Hewitt Show.  I missed most of 
the segment but at the end he was giving a guest a hard time about having a 
mid-life crisis and getting Corvair, well the guy replied it wasn't a 
Corvair but a 60 Corvette.  Then someone said Corvairs were the cars Ralph 
Nader got recalled.  As soon as I got home I shot off the below email to him 
and about 10 minutes later he read it on the air.

Hugh, as vice president of the Corvair Preservation Foundation and a member 
of the Board of Directors of the Corvair Society of America, I can assure 
you Ralph Nader did not get the Corvair recalled.  I was sitting in my 66 
Monza Sports sedan waiting for my kids to get done with football practice 
when I heard that statement.  Because of Ralphie and the first chapter of 
his book, the NTSB actually tested the Corvair and declared it safe.

Any time you want to do a segment on Corvairs, the CPF or CORSA can provide 
you with someone very knowledgeable to talk with.
