OT: Censored News

In the newspaper when I read about auto accidents, they mention seatbelts in cases where they were beneficial or would have been beneficial. Less than 3/4 mile down the road, an 18 year old boy was burned alive because he couldn't get out of his seatbelt, however there was no mention of this in any newspaper or TV news reports. They just said he died in an automobile accident and it was "under investigation". This boy called his mother on a cell phone, and a man trying to free him got 3rd degree burns trying to undo the seat belt. These things didn't make the news...RogerN

Another big point in favor of face shields: you have other things on your face besides your eyes that need protection. Like teeth. For that matter, most face shields extend down far enough to cover the larynx as well; that's another place you wouldn't like to catch a chunk of something hard.
