Saw that article in the paper this morning. We just spent the weekend at the steam show held south of Mason, Michigan every year. Lots of tractors and steam engines to look at and admire ( we took our H, 340 and 450). It did cross my mind over the weekend, while watching the steam engines pull a weight sled, and feeling the heat radiating off them, to wonder if they ever exploded. Guess I got my answer. I feel very sorry for the people who where killed and injured - it makes my skin crawl just to think about being scalded by hot water and oil!
There are dangers in most every thing we do, I guess. I grew up on a farm, working with all kinds of equipment, and thinking back on some of the things we did, and the chances we took, it is a wonder I still have all my fingers, toes, arms and legs. I guess I'll still take my chances at a tractor or steam show over driving down the highway to get there!
