You are not doing whatever it takes to avoid another's death. You are
doing something that reduces slightly the remote chance that someone will
die. If you drive your car there is a chance you could cause someone's
death. Better stay home.
You get the picture.

And I always figured airlines got rid of peanuts because pretzels were
cheaper. Same reason they got rid of magazines, food, and now pillows.
Once I got upgraded to first class and got peanuts again. :-)

Better be careful with that canning. People have gotten sick from home
canned food. :-)
