[QUOTE="ClassicBiker, post: 99456, member: 1632"] Of course, put it out there, let everyone get used to seeing it and ignoring, then when everyone is complacent about its existence....... WHAM! Spring the trap! I've said it before the ultimate goal of all insurance companies is to end all leisure activity that might have the slightest of hint of danger about it. Every activity, regardless of how mundane or innocuous has to have some kind of insurance. If legislators enact laws mandating an activity requires insurance and the underwriters cannot or will not insure then the activity cannot take place. If the attitude of the insurance company(ies) is to abolish an activity they only have to get politicians to go along with the idea that participants need to be insured to participate. Once that is accomplished they merely state their actuaries have concluded coverage is prohibitive, and the politicians are left holding the bag. The pols have look bad until the next shiny object (issue) comes along and a fickle public forgets all about the first issue and moves on to the next. Steven [/QUOTE]
