The laws are the laws... if this is a more efficient means of enforcing them, then all the better.

It's been a long time since I've pulled an all nighter...did some in college and grad school, incl. one insane marathon ~40 hr stretch w/o sleep working w/ a couple other grad students on finishing a big project. I did ~50 hours w/o sleep when working at a startup in 2000, whole team worked all weekend getting ready for a big demo w/ a big potential client. After about age 35, I find it hard staying up past midnight anymore...

GPS could be used for precrime detection also, if you drive into a neighborhood known for crack dealers or prostitution, for example..

Hmmm...interesting factoids. Didn't know Spirits had front bench seats available (3 up front, it says). I wouldn't recommend putting gasoline into the battery..something bad could happen.

But it's registered in a state and driven on public roads..so therefore... kind of a gray area.

It's an xA thing. You wouldn't understand, I don't understand. I don't see those very often compared to the xB and tC. Scion seems to have it's own little cult following.

The Flex almost reminds me of a modernized early '50s car..it has the thickness of midsection, fairly flat glass and more vertical windshield, hood height, etc that reminds me of something from then updated..

One interesting light of this type I saw pics of somewhere was on a '60s or '70s show car (not sure if it was a Ford, don't recall the details)...the light was sequential and lighted up in the shape of a giant right or left arrow (taillight housing looked normal when not signalling).

Yes, remember Mista Chuck can make time stand still.

Amazing story...wondering how the car crashed backwards into the building...must have skidded.

I'd love to have a modern incarnation of the Eagle...the existing ones are just too old for me to deal with.

I'm really light and noise sensitive about sleep...part of being a light sleeper, I'm afraid. I have to have a dark room that is quiet or with the ceiling fan on (a constant noise). I like a firm but soft mattress...since I got a king size pillow top, I find I sleep better..

I try and get to sleep at about 10-10:30 Sun-Thur nights, up at 5:15-5:30 Mon-Fri. Friday and Sat nights stay up till 11-12 or so, sleep in until 7-7:30. Ambien is my friend. On the weekends, I often take a 1-2 hr afternoon nap. I treasure that. I usually don't use an alarm clock except Monday mornings..the dogs wake me before 5:30 usually. I've been prone to insomnia in the past, still get it once in a while. When I was younger and in college and grad school, I was a total night owl..but over the last 12+ years, I've become a morning person...

The wierd bulging lights...the Acura shields...it's like 'if we can't make it beautiful, let's make it wierd!'..

So bland lately....and Acura so wierd. And no sports cars!!!

I'm fond of that era of Honda/Acura also because of the McLaren Hondas in F1...I was a huge Ayrton Senna fan...the mid '80s to mid '90s is my favorite era of F1.

They were good cars..low cowl, great forward visibility. I esp. like the original Acura Legend coupe..my sister used to have a '91, I enjoyed driving it....the 2nd gen models were quite nice also. The few Hondas and Acuras I've driven (incl. a friend's '95 Prelude and another's '91 NSX) all had great steering feel, smooth engines, smooth gearboxes. Very nice cars to drive..not appliance-like the way I think of most Toyotas...

This is my buddy Steve's black on black '91. I've had the pleasure of riding in it many times over the last 10 years, and have driven it a few times. Sweet car. Love the engine noise, the feel of the manual steering, etc. They are fantastic on twisty mountain roads..about 5 years ago, we did a 200 mile day trip with 10 other NSXes from the Colorado club along with 4 Skylines (all RHD gray market imports), a few 300ZXs, Supra Turbos, along w/ one Viper that blew it's radiator hose 75 miles from the nearest major town...

I think the nicely equipped Accords are more like $30k or more. Under 20k is Civic territory.

$48k would buy a very clean used NSX. That's the only Honda I could see spending that much on.

Good to hear..progress!

Some believe H1N1 was manufactured and spread intentionally by Big Pharma companies so they can make a killing on selling vaccinations, and that VeriChip is involved as well. I wouldn't put it past corrupt corporations to do something like this.

Both interiors look quite good.. can't really judge them, though, from single pics. Have to sit in them and feel them to really judge them.

Good news..GM should trumpet this in their future ads.

Then you will love VeriChip. This company apparently has a patent on implantable chips for humans. Just think of the uses--they could be used for tracking and monitoring people, remotely vaccinating people, etc. Lots of possibilities here. Their stock has gone up sharply lately.
