Don't listen to the 'diesel facists' they cost more to buy in the first place and need servicing more often which negates the mpg savings... good for towing caravans though.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment
