[Wombat]

I once saw a horrible head-on smash between a car and a truck on the windy road between Vancouver and Whistler. I talked to the (very mangled) car driver for an hour while they cut the car into three pieces to free him and his passenger. I heard later on that as a result of some mix up his mother was informed by the police that he had died in the crash, even though he actually survived. To make matters worse, the exact same thing had happened six months earlier: she'd been told he was dead when he wasn't. The poor woman must be paranoid now!
