...hole now--two, three, four men--quickly they are strapping me to a stretcher. My legs dangle off the sides until they realize I cannot control them. "I can't move them," I say almost in a whisper. "I can't move them" ...Men are screaming all around me. "Oh God get me out of here!" "Please help!" they scream...We are moving slowly through the water, the Amtrac rocking back and forth. We cannot be brave anymore, there is no reason. It means nothing...

Stick and Carl are masters of the "power slide," a dirt racing technique that requires each driver to gauge the velocity of his car against its distance from other vehicles while skidding laterally around a slick clay oval...
...protective facility, like that used in biological warfare testing.) The proponents cite how the proceedings would follow strict federal guidelines. But those guidelines were drawn up by none other than scientists like themselves--some of whom are interested in pursuing the research. In any other field, the contestants would scream "fix," but the seeming independence and "stature" of the men involved seems to block any conflict of interest charges...
