I also had a lot of interactions with people connected to Mothers Against Drunk Drivers on-and-off since around 1992. I think they would expect me to say something. Or, hope I would.

I had an ancestor who was run over by a wagon in Central Illinois in 1870 or so. That's all we know about him other than his name. "Here lies Heinz. He was run over by a wayward wagon".
