Rob,

You miss the point, someone can be taught and use safe procedures and methods around their "safely" engineered tools, like a store bought contractor's saw, however, some experienced people get lax around their tooling and the result is the loss of life, limb or, at best, a close call that scares them back into safe thinking. Just because someone is injured does not mean that he/she was not taught the proper use of their tools. Safety is important and we should never get lax about it even when we take the same cut a thousand times we should treat it as if its the first time and make sure all safety procedures are in place.
