ran a stop sign ... hit his car broadside, and knocked him cold. Passerbys
pulled him from the wreck and revived him. He began a terrific struggle and had
to be tranquilized by the medics. Later, when he was calm, they asked him why
he struggled so. He said, "I remember the impact, then nothing. I woke up
on a concrete slab in front of a huge, flashing 'Shell' sign. And somebody was
standing in front of the 'S.'"
