Comment from Deepak Chopra

That’s how it started, but nowadays the cases are even funnier. There was one Stella Award nominee who crashed a caravan because she left the wheel of the car to go to the back of the caravan. Her defence was that she didn’t know that the caravan couldn’t drive itself. What an idiot. These people are spoiling humanity.
