...Fayed lawyers say the two men erred by not insisting on a backup car, by allowing Paul to take an indirect route down a dangerous stretch of road, and in Rees-Jones' case, by putting on his own seat belt without insisting that the others do the same. Should one or both bodyguards decide to take legal action against the Fayed camp, they can expect to face some severe countercharges...

These and other findings will be compared with base-line readings taken before lift-off, which are already being assembled. Glenn routinely walks around the grounds of NASA's Houston facility with monitors strapped to his wrist and belt.
