Professor's Reply:
 

No.  These considerations create exactly the situation that Tompkins was trying to avoid.  He wanted a system that would not use state common-law considerations of the place where the accident occurred in determining the applicable law to his case. Go back to the question and also think about this: what is the legal basis for the doctrine of Swift v. Tyson?
