A Case for Zero Tolerance

I posted this clip ages ago, but having read the news article linked below, it somehow seemed appropriate to give it another airing..... This one's for you, Erwin. (of course, all persons are presumed innocent until convicted in a court of law) PS: Hogday's tip for the day: Don't sit in front of your computer whilst brushing your teeth with an electric toothbrush and then sneeze unexpectedly - nasty.

Very good Hogs!

How does one avoid sneezing unexpectedly, exactly?

I think the Telegraph is being a bit disingenuous in its headline of 'drunk pilot' when the limit for pilots is only nine micrograms of alcohol in 100 millilitres as opposed to 35 milligrams for motorists. Would anyone even be aware of that small amount of alcohol in their system. Having say 15 micrograms of alcohol in your blood for every 100 millilitres is by no stretch of the imagination 'drunk'.

The righteous are now going to scream "any amount of alcohol is dangerous" but I would more concerned about the competence of the pilot than whether he had a drink the night before and is slightly over the very small limit.
