anyone else getting less excited about new cars? I’ve noticed that i’ll see lambos, mclarens, etc on the road and I just don’t find them nearly as interesting or as cool anymore. But i’ll see an older car or truck and be far more interested in it.

I can say, as one data point, that I had been considering buying a Tesla, but given what a piece of crap Musk has turned into, I wouldn’t be caught dead in one of his cars.

Speed is the only thing that makes sense.  If the speed limit was say 35 and the Volt was going 70, then the Pilot driver might not have had the time to see the oncoming Volt in time.

The Franklin expedition is a major plot point. Then this weekend I went to pick out a show to watch on my Tivo, saw I had a bunch of episodes of NOVA to watch,…

You pay the lowest wage you can, you get the lowest number of shits given.

The named a boat “HMS Terror” and thought good things would come from this?

This isn’t exactly new. This picture is from 1896. The two trains are hitting each other with each going at LEAST 45 mph (most people felt like it was over 60 mph).

Well, some smart people did an analysis of speeches given by politicians cross-referenced with the temperature at which the speech was delivered and found that speeches given while it’s really hot tend to have simpler, less florid language. If I recall, it was the equivalent of losing six months to a year of education.
