Very ironic..and sad:(

Well, I think it's the Alanis Morrissette version of irony, not the real version. I was wondering if there was a term for schadenfreude when it happens to nice people.

I saw that the segway inventor died and was so worried for Dean Kamen.

Sadly for this guy, segways are not in fact hovercraft.

Aw!

And yeah, they need to fix that not hovercraft problem.

Really? Here people use them a lot. Not, like, for every day stuff but cops ride them and walking tours use them and stuff like that.

The only time I've ever ridden a Segway, I ran into a cop. TRUE STORY.

o_O i was expecting more along the lines of 'head-on collision with car' when i read 'segway accident'. driving off a cliff? yikes.

ditto on being worried for dean kamen.
