Thanks for the Corvair bit. I have owned a number of them, and was a so-called "expert" on their engines and drivetrain in an organization called "CORSA" (Corvair Society of America) and "ACORN" (Association of Corvair Nuts). Reading Nader's book was required. Amazing how the VW, with the same type pf rear suspension gets nary a mention, and the Corvair, in 1965, changed the suspension to a more Corvette type with double universals on each axle. Even Nader's raiders state "With the suspension changes, the Corvair became one of the best handling cars built in America". But it was too late. Time, rumor, and cost drove the little 911 wannbee away.

YEah; I'm kinda Conservative, and for the life of me I cannot see anything "conservative" fiscally about the current president. I still say: It is amazing the emotional drek we take from our political leaders that we would not accept from our own kids.
