What does perturb me is safety in general. In the pro market you cannot operate any machinery nowadays unless you have had formal training to do so, and all the guards have to be in place. With no training or experience to pull upon, the amateur can get hold of the equivelent machines, smaller and not so well made in some cases, but still capable of inflicting equally horrific injuries, and subsequently take the guards of and try out things on TV shows that are glibly badged with a 'guard removed for photography' legend.
OK, but put the guards on and you can't do most of the work shown, and an amateur with very little knowledge may find that they now have 'fingers removed for posterity' to consider.

Thanks for saying that Andy, I was beginning to think that I was turning paranoid on this subject, especially when people start batting on about "the nanny state" and dado sets on table saws.
