I was lucky enough to have dinner and a couple of beers with Norbert Singer & his wife in Charlotte NC at the Porsche parade a few years ago. I asked a questions about his favorite races and he was looking bored. I am sure he gets the same questions all the time. So I changed the subject and asked him about his children. He lit up and his wife sat foreword. I have to admit I really wanted to talk about racing but I was actually polite and listened about his daughter and son.

I slammed beers with Tony Lapine who was head of the Porsche design department at the time. I leaned to never try to keep up with a German drinking beer. We drank every St Pauli Girl in the place. We had to switch to Heineken.

I would love to share an evening with Isaac Asimov.
