I could see this being used in an On Star commercial or something. You'd think she would have broken the window out or something, wouldn't you?

Recently, was reading a local newspaper, here in North Carolina. I don't have the article, but basically, this is what it said.
Man dies, while attempting to pull down tree with his pick-up truck. Basically, what the remainder of the article explained, was that the guy didn't use a long enough rope, and pulled the tree down, on top of his truck, crushing and killing himself in the process.. Nick

My very first thought was break the f'ing window! Well, one of the rear ones specifically. Although that $50 deductible can be daunting.

She must have been stuck in the only forest on earth to not have a rock on the ground within 30 miles that could break a window.

Not to defend her rather under developed survival instinct but if she was a small woman and couldn't find a rock it could have been a bit difficult to break the car's windows. She probably didn't know that it is better to hit any of the door windows in the corner then in the middle.
The family will miss her but society migth not. Alex |

her size has nothing to do with it.
her survival instinct/ intelligence is. the human can figure things out. like how to break the back window of the suv and use the bumper to gain access (if the car has no running boards.) even apes and mice have been proven in lab tests to think thier way our of simple situations.

I agree. A window seems to be a small price to pay compared to your life....

Strictly not Darwinian, but strangely symmetrical with Darwin's intent.
There once was a girl named Lewinsky Who played on a flute like Stravinsky 'Twas 'Hail to the Chief' On this flute made of beef That stole the front page from Kaczynski. ------------ Said Clinton to young Ms. Lewinsky, We don't want to leave clues like Kaczynski, Since you made such a mess, Use the hem of your dress And please wipe that stuff off your chinsky. --------------- Lewinsky and Clinton have shown What Kaczynski must surely have known, That an intern is better Than a bomb in a letter, When deciding how best to be blown. |
