Passenger jet breakes in two! How safe are those planes we ride everyday?

GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.

Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.

The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry.

Nothing pads post count like metal fatigue and a high IQ.

The first 10 pages or so are even funnier to read with the knowledge that you have defended your stupidity to the ends of the earth rather than just saying "I had a reeruned" and laughing it off.
