Whoops!

Yesterday I said that I thought that the Toyota recall wasn't that big
of a deal as it only affected a few cars out of hundreds of thousands.

I was wrong.

This morning I read that that have been at least 2,000 un-intended
accelerations, over 800 wrecks, and at least 19 killed.

That's a heck of a lot more serious.

There is also some indication from Toyota that it may be software
problems with the ECU (that they been denying) and not just a mechanical
problem with the electronic pedal.
