Tony Stewart, the current NASCAR "Cup" racer whose reputation was partly 
built in dirt-track competition, is passing on driving in today's Watkins 
Glen, NY, event, after a teenage driver in a dirt event, wrecked after a 
collision with Tony, was fatally injured after doing what I've seen Cup 
guys do on occasion... stalk the other guy on foot while cars are still 
moving on the track... walking too closely to a moving car is never a good 
thing... Kevin Ward was 20.

I can't help but think back to when news-channel types excoriated drivers, 
say, whose cars failed inspections after qualifying, and wonder if any of 
'em will be calling for Stewart's head. There's too much sh!t going in DC 
or Israel for them to care.
