Tin whiskers could be a problem in more than a home entertainment system, a PC, 
or that K-3 under the dash...Automobiles today are fully computerized and that 
could spell disaster if whiskers short out the control unit while you are 
bombing down the expressway at 65 MPH...You lose most of your braking, your 
ability to steer and your ability to motor out of the way of that semi behind 
you...It was a long time ago and there is no evidence that I know of as to why 
it happened, but Harry Chapin was killed on the Long Island Expressway when his 
Volkswagen died and he was run over by a semi...
