I was actually prompted by some of your posts on the other thread to go back and read some pinto related stuff (including, most interestingly to me, a lengthy law review article that indicated that much of the 'myth' of its poor design, etc, really was myth and had a weak factual foundation). But it is remarkable how many people believe in their own expertise because, well, google/Wikipedia, right? ...which, as you note, leads to 'I experienced a problem therefore 'design flaw''
