>From a non-Corvair guy. Some advice to us... Good idea, methinks. Tim, could 
a section be offered on the Corvair.org site where it shows, "Safe at Any

Suggest the Corvair Club compile these stories..............YES
REALLY...........and put them on the website under "Safe At Any Speed;
The Real Corvair Safety Story"  Or "Why you should'a canned Nader years
ago for being the lying slug that he is!"

These are too good to waste.................really...................you
gotta keep these and compile them!!
