Bob,
Your absolutely right in my opinion there should be a cluster f*ck warning =
on these. But then again maybe these =93dimwits=94 that just don=92t know b=
etter. Right up there with Bungie wings, trimix computers and stuffing the =
long hose. These are used for lifting ONLY!!! (after being secured, you dip=
-sh*ts!). It=92s obvious in my opinion that many individuals on this list a=
re just winging it and just don=92t have enough common since to STAY OUT OF=
 A CLUSTER F*CK! This is a STROKE VS. STROKE/ BARNEY FIVE issue here.
