Acceleration/deceleration

Can someone reread the article and check whether acceleration is confused with deceleration anywhere? 203.218.86.162 02:39, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lacking references

In my opinion the article is lacking references, for example: "inveterate collector of euphemisms and adages", "popular with the press and his staff", "stood in the room that day only a short distance away", and contains some POV like "There is no question" in the introduction.

Project Barbecue

Stapp's research into vehicle occupant safety has arguably been more important in the long run than his earlier work. However, the impact of this research on vehicle design — and its eventual forced cancellation, rumoured to have been caused by coercion from car manufacturers — is somewhat difficult to find information on. The German Wikipedia has some relevant information; would anyone be willing to translate it? --pmj 11:19, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Plagarized content

Having read this article today, I must protest that large swaths of it appear to simply have been created by pulling paragraphs from articles I have written about John Paul Stapp. Some of these articles are referenced in the footnotes but that's hardly an excuse. I only state it here because some of the exact verbiage I used (and spent time developing) in my articles appears in this Wikipedia page -- word for word.
