Years ago a man was driving home from a long day at work when a cargo truck
ran a stop sign and broadsided him, it put him in the hospital where he died
12 hours later, that truck was carrying shipments of Moose Z1100 System
II's, Z911's and a few MPI-775's.

That man was my father, my quest since then was convert all of those panels
into boat anchors

Oh sure some blame the driver for falling asleep at the wheel or the
trucking company for having bad brakes and worn out tires or the state of
Indiana for not fixing a dangerous intersection but I think deep down we all
know it was those panels in the back....sitting there on that pallet....
under the shrink-wrap.....waiting to strike..
