<VV> Do we really sound like this?--no Corvair

[Mark Noakes]

than her Corvair fanatic comments that are an automotive equivalent of ethnic profiling.

By the way...her frequent use of the F word (spelled out) offends my sensibilities...where can I send my request to get her journalist "plates" revoked?
