60 days? The public-at-large hasn't learned much in 60 years!

How do you keep John Q. awake while you teach him about momentum, tire "footprints", fuel consumption rates, even ice is slippery? Naw...a lost cause, Aero.... We live in a world of "Turn the key...and go!" The ditches begin to fill with cars when the flakes (of snow...not the drivers) begin to fall. You've seen it; I've seen it ... I just keep watching for the sheeple that might come sliding towards me....As long as a driver's license is so easy to get...we'll have problems. 60 days? They'll reproduce in this time frame!
