G'morning James,

 MM> Hey, we get the Letterman show here -
 JB> 

Don't praise me - Canadian engineer Marshall McCluhan invented the 
Global Village that gets Letterman to the ends of the earth 
daily...(met McCluhan once, many moons ago).

 JB> See, normal kids try to hide their wounds, and learn how to treat
 JB>  lacerations at emergency wards through experience. Either that, or
 JB>  we'd just wee on it.  Oh, and when we puke our guts out, we *lock*
 JB>  the door to the washroom. 

Heh !  Teaching in a NZ country school once,  the timid kid at the 
staffroom door with a hurting foot was told by the senior woman to 
wait until teachers had finished their lunch.   I went outside to 
have a look, and found he was right - his foot WAS hurting - he'd 
somehow pierced it with a 6 inch nail....

 JB> You know, it's just about time that we see another aluminium clad
 JB> composite sports car for the masses. I read longingly at the MR2 II
 JB> turbo. Supposed to be some power::weight to contend with there!

The new Mazda MX is supposed to be pretty cool - but if you really 
need to go,  how about the latest Bugatti Veyron - 1001bhp and 0- 
-186mph in 14 seconds ?

 JB> BTW, D'ya know much about the SHO Kawasaki  engine?

Less than nothing - motocycle engine ? Very high power to weight 
ratio ?  Excellent for powering go-carts and club racers ?

:-))
