It's called logic and extrapolation from the facts. This is a reasoning process that is performed all the time, in major studies, educational institutions, business, and goverment. It's the same logic that allows one to say if all Erts are Werts and some Zerts are Erts then some Zerts are Werts. Remember your SAT's?

Perhaps you can provide evidence to refute my contention that safety was not the overriding concern when the tank was relocated in 1973. Or even an extrapolation of logic to contradict mine?

And yes, I think you'll find the overwhelming body of evidence regarding crashes resulting in ruptured tanks leading to bodily injury and/or death (as a percentage of production) will prove my opinion to be fact.

It's good to be back, right Liz?
