That's why it went in The Lounge. Should I not have done that?

The far-too-obtuse-point was that when I was a sprout, automotive entertainment* consisted in going to the Dallas airport for the destruction derby. At some point I was sickened by having to watch the sacrifice of a white 1954 Studebaker 4-door.

Today, even without a VR headset, you can enjoy the spectacle without so much air pollution and tire wear. I saw the first (or 2nd?) Fast & Furious. He went through four sets of tires for practice.

I think that's progress. Thanks for asking.
