They started using it in 1974, that's not enough time to really understand the long term effects of Anhydrous Ammonium will have on the body. Also, Potassium is needed in the body but in large doses will stop your heart.

Yes, but heads of state have always been flown around in military aircraft.; it would be nonsensical for the US to have only Air Force One. There is nothing in the article about the first lady being flown in a private jet paid for with tax dollars to go to Paris on a shopping trip.

Can you cite a source that the First Lady is in fact using a private jet that is paid for with tax payer dollars? I sincerely doubt that you can.

I have to tell you, this put a big smile on my face.

I'm surprised Pagani doesn't just assemble the cars from prefab pieces here in the States. I know Ariel does that with the Atom and that's how they get around Federal Regulations. Couldn't Pagani do the same? The Atom certainly doesn't have any airbags.

Fair enough! I'm in full agreement with you. If the defense budget were strictly R&D for programs that provide for viable technology in the future, I'm in full support of that. When I made my argument for cuts, I didn't mean R&D, but exactly where you said it should be: in wasteful procurements and contracts that…

Do you have sources for that figure? DARPA's own budget report states $4 Billion in expenditures for research and development in 2011: www.darpa.mil/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=537

As someone in law school, I never thought I'd see adverse possession actually in use. It's not stealing, nor is it a loophole in the law, it's a real law that exists on the books in every state in the union. The purpose of Adverse Possession is to keep land in the hands of those who can best use it, or rather those…

Well, Jaguar and M-B I think could make an appearance if they wanted to. Jaguar's got Tata backing them now and Mercedes has the income I would assume as they're still running a F1 team. Alfa I'm not so sure about, Fiat would rather focus on Ferrari than Alfa...which is unfortunate because they have more racing…

Ferrari will stay in LMGT for the foreseeable future so they can focus on F1, but why would you think that Porsche in LMP1 would keep them out? Besides the fact that the Porsche's have been historically more reliable.

Poor S.O.Bs

So happy to see the Rebound on the list, I have lots of fond memories racing that against my Fastraxx when I was a kid. The Fastraxx was easily quicker but the Rebound definitely had the advantage of running over things-including the Fastraxx. Miss those days.

I don't know, I never understood the whole personal luxury car thing. The new T Bird, the Cadillac Allante and the SL 500 all seem to fall into this, "Am I a Grand Tourer, or just a big convertible sedan?" thing. Arguably the XLR fell into that category as well. Ford would have done well to make the T Bird more of a…

Endora makes me think of ewoks...just sayin'.

+1 for the Alien reference.

It's true, wasn't that first generation Viper territory?

Gompomotive's stuff is sweet, Fuchs and Minilites as well.

I really like Gompomotive's stuff, my buddy had some on his VW, I'm a fan.

@Nighthawkwill7, Hoon Depot Manager: Agreed, I do love me some Fuchs.

Silly question but, how much does the increase in used car prices have to do with inflation?
