Toddler calls 911 after mother collapses - Yahoo! News (AP)
I like this story and had to share it. Good for this little guy!
Add this toddler hero to the assortment of other heroes who you would not think able to contact 911 for help in an emergency (dogs, cats, etc.), but surprise and gratify us all by doing just that.

Woman crashes car into Huntington Beach store
Article - News - Woman crashes car into Huntington Beach store (Orange County Register)
This is an old lady who is not acting like a groovy lady.
She drives a better car than I (2006 silver Accord), however, mine (2000 not-silver Accord) is in better shape right now, since mine has not been driven through the front of a drugstore.
The good news is no one was hurt - the driver's airbag wasn't even activated.
Unfortunately, this is yet another in a long, too-long, string of "pedal-confusion" accidents caused by elderly drivers.
I do think the time has likely come for drivers to be more rigorously tested, say, upon their 75th birthday. Illinois already does this, I think all states should.
