Post #88,916 by drewk 3/17/03 8:49:56 PM Reply	Something's off In that photo, no way does the dozer run her down. Either the driver turned and she couldn't run faster than it moved (or she tripped), or she ran in front of it while it was moving. Also, she doesn't appear to be moving in that photo. So I question the characterization of "moments before impact." === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
Post #88,929 by jake123 3/17/03 9:37:11 PM Reply	Well, according to CNN and the Globe and Mail She's standing on a pile of dirt and brush. The bulldozer started to push it, and she fell while trying to get off the pile. The bulldozer partially buried her, then ran her over, and then backed up and ran her over a second time. Also, one member of her protest team quoted her as saying "my back is broken" when they ran up to her after the bulldozer was finished. That last detail was on the CNN site. --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\n-------------------------------------------------------------------

I would bet she was not the only person he was keeping an eye on, so once he saw her start moving he looked somewhere else. === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
