off topic

sorry. my rant. warren brown. washington post. he does a sunday piece on cars. a 'review'. he be a smuck. example. last week. a review of some 'chevy' model. in the article he states that the said engine has a displacement of .8 cubic centimeters. funny, my bmw 'scooter' has a displacement of 900 cubic centimeters. r90s model. today's review centers around the fact that the 'car' in review is a car. not an suv. difference being a delta of $10 in parking fee. sorry for the emotion. this man is pathetic. and so am i for sharing same. apologies!

I also read, should say scanned, this article as I normally do each Sunday. I don't consider his articles to be directed at someone looking for any technical detail, just a high level overview of one car each week. Most of the regulars on this board have far more automotive knowledge that he. And typos do happen.
regards,
Mark
