...ironically, it IS already dead -- it's a Zombie thread -- its carcass is just twitching and going through the motions of imitating meaningful literate life.

Why stop at putting magnets on the fuel line? I have an idea I'm going to patent. What do y'all think?

...maybe position the magnets on the outside of the aluminum tin-foil hat to help the driver achieve higher MENTAL economy?!?

Don't tell the hat wearers, but the hats don't stop magnetic fields....

This thread should live forever, just like the alt.beer thread in the newsgroup days which started with a post that said "I like beer".
In fact, I like beer - Guinness is the can of choice, Tennants only because I am in Scotland, and as they say when in Rome...

...do you want to tell them (hat wearers) or should I tell them that aluminum is actually a diamagnetic material (wink,wink)?!?

^^^^ +1 on Guinness. MMmmmm...Thanks. Now I'm thirsty.
Us Canadians tend to brag about our beer, but we compare ours to American beer which is toilet water to begin with.
I'm gonna walk to the my local Irish Pub and drink a Guinness right now.
