A hydrogen filled Zeppelin would be awesome in a rally. Why drive through sand and over rocks when you could cruise safely above while sipping a martini on the observation deck.

Hahaha. I was wondering if you would have something to say about the swipe at smarts. Have you ever had any desire to get an iQ, and if not, why?

Learn to tie a gag properly and that sound goes away.
