ha !

there's the answer !

last year I turned 42 - I always told people who wanted to know my age "I reached the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything"

Old SAR Pilot/Bob - you might want to run the last part of that link through the Google translation tools - I just did and it is pretty interesting. I'm sure that someone fluent in Spanish can do better but it was quite a story :shock:

There is plenty of information about accidentes.
