The jumpseater on the flight before the first crash watching the crew actually might have prevented that. He brought up behavior that Boeing thought pilots would respond to - uncommanded/runaway stabilizer trim. He suggested it, the crew agreed and applied the appropriate actions, and they continued to their destination.
