Thank you all for your opinions and understand, which I though was well thought out and reasonably balanced. ^

I don't hold anything against Christep really, after all this is all really loose conversation, and you are bound to get opinions and more opinions! Otherwise there wouldn't be much joy to whole thing. I’m sure there are times we’ll agree on things, and there are times we won’t!

B-HQC I appreciate your thoughts, here are a few of my thoughts that come to mind when I read through your reply.

Your point that you will run out of oxygen in the car I can see your point, but to deflate your point, imagine your heating is running to run at full blast throughout your 4 hours parked in the sun. Therefore you won't run out of air or heat. For arguments sake, lets just pretend this is a special car whose engine won't overheat from idling for so long.

Also I am certain you are a capable athlete or used to spending time in the Great Outdoors. That is commendable, and I think we should all be more like that! However there were babies, kids, elderly people, Pregnant women, and ill people on board. Some were succumbing to the heat, and I am fairly confident another 2 hours and someone would have fallen very ill.

And I know the point of driver doesn't sound wonderful, but that’s how the paper decided to quote us. This is something how the interview went:

Who were u traveling with?

Mrs. (HER NAME), Mr. (MY NAME) & Mr. (NAME OF OUR DRIVER ONLY). Then they asked, who is Mr. (NAME OF OUR DRIVER) to you? and she is like, oh he’s our driver. And so the article comes out, the newspaper chose to address him as Driver, what can we do? they had his full name. She even told them, Mr. (NAME OF OUR DRIVER) saw this and that. Even in our house we don't refer to the driver as Driver. He’s been with us for 17 years now, he’s like a member of our family. We were not allowed to read the article in advance either.

I use the term DRIVER liberally above not dehumanize the person, but just to make it easy for you to understand who I am writing about. I don't want to mention his real name unnecessarily.
