It's statements like that even when done in green that occasionally make me chuckle and a little nervous.

I can't for the life of me remember his name, it's on the tip of my tongue, but we had a guy on the 911 Tech board years ago that was a member of the "SCWDP" (911 SC World Domination Plot) and in the military. He changed jobs, and had to get increased security clearance. As part of one of the interviews for the clearance, they brought up his "membership" in the "SCWDP."
At one PCA meeting a new local member (a CPA) asked me about his SC and I told him the engine management was totally different than my setup. I suggest he find Pelican Parts tech forum and they will have answers to anything about his 911 SC.

At the next meeting he asked about the SCWDP and I guess he had not understood it was all in fun. The man's wife was there and I explained it this way. We all love our air cooled 911 and agree they are the prefect car, and we needed something to argue about as always agreeing gets boring. So the SCWDP was formed so the 3.2 Carrera folks could scoff and have a good time making fun of the SC. The SCWDP had silly arguments and were always wishing they had a Carrera. Of course the husband was about to extol the wonders of the SC and I his wife understood and knew I was just joking. She cut him off and said "he is joking!" and I think the guy understood. He was a literal thinker.
