I think there have been some silly posts from both sides, MANY from me, but I never said the speed limit would save lives, just that going slow is usually safer than going fast.

Like others, that oppose the speed limit, I don't think it's being proposed with safety in mind, I think it's being proposed as a means to partially rid the lake of "undesireables" while hiding behind a veil of safety conciousness.
