Imho...what has changed is the mindset of people today, especially the younger ones. All one hears today, be it regarding seat belts, smoking, whatever....is "safety". In short...we have turned into a nation of a combination or health and safety freaks. Really. I've been around for a long long time..and I have done things/had jobs where some things just "came with the territory". Did anyone get their nose out of joint because of that? Hell no. If one thinks about it...look at where this "noise" today is really coming from. Activists of one kind or another...plain and simple. Look at the ads in magazines and tv...the majority of them are concerning some type of health aid or cosmetic. If not that...they are telling one to "buy this", "you need that", etc. Then we have this wacky thing where some damm pharmaceutical is advertised where one should "see their doctor to see if they need it"! Of all the damm stupid things...sheesh. I could go on and on...but today for the most part people are lemmings, one dives into the sea and hordes follow that one. People have in my opinion forgotten to be independant. They have forgotten to in most cases think. So....others have gotten this hairbrained idea that they must tell these lemmings how to live.
Ok, I'm over my rant.....
