[kj] (Kind Of) OT: 1970's ad for Pakistani International Air (Two more)

[Jiri]

Wow, the asbestos one is fantastic -- not for its WTC connection but for 
the "When life depends on it, you use asbestos."

... As long as you only plan to live another 10-20 years and don't mind 
dying a horrid death through mesothelioma. Classic. I've met too many 
people whose loved ones worked their whole life only to be zipped away 
by mesothelioma right around retirement, while companies kept using it 
long after many uses for asbestos were banned. That struck a chord.
