[DMCForum] Re: Kicking Martin's What? (With 200 HP)

["cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Without getting into the horsepower arguement, I would like to point
out that I couldn't give a jackle's tackles what criticism Europeans
have to offer about our automotive engineering, or any other form of
engineering for that matter.

Americans didn't invent automobiles but we made them practical so
everyone could have one.

I recommend looking at some of the buildings, bridges, highways,
tunnels and monuments here for examples of civil engineering. Next, I
recommend a tour of Kennedy Space Center in Florida for an example of
our aeronautical engineering. I heard we sent men to the moon once.

Oh, and last I checked, the HMS Talent, (our host submarine during
mid-deployment refit) is burning one of our reactors for propulsion
and your SSBN's carry our Trident D-5 nuclear missiles.

I don't scorn the European approach to things. The 600+ year old
church I visited will always be fresh in my memory. The "chunnel"
across the English Channel will always astound me. Let's just agree
that we have different approaches to the same problem and be friends
shall we?
