So its the ole' "slipperly slope" vs. possibly saving some lives in the near future. God, I love the "slippery slope" - a lawyer with no argument's best friend. Its like saying "I may be fucked on the obvious logical answer - allow the research - so, I'm going to hector you with nightmares about how if we do what you're considering, the world will go to hell in a handbasket." If I were a judge, I'd bar the argument. It should be limited to where it belongs - winter sports discussions.
