7/29    Is it really true that we subsidize auto driving to the tune of
        $5k/yr? Shit I could probably hire a private driver for less...

        \_ You might have missed the point.  Hiring a chauffeur to drive your
           private vehicle won't change the amount of gasoline your private

2/10    About the Lexus that crashed because of (supposedly) a stuck
        accelerator padel, why didn't the driver simply put the transmission
        in Neutral?  If the cop passenger had time to press at least one
        button to dial 911, wait for the call to be picked up, and had a
        10-second-plus conversation with the operator (which was played back
        in media reports), wasn't there much more than enough time to tell the

1/15    Hey guys, can you provide recommendations for home loans and
        car insurance? I looked into http://www.marlihomes.com and
        it looks promising. As for insurance, I'm looking at
        http://www.pasoinsurance.com (e.g. "We did the Car insurance
        homework for you. See the results at Paso Auto Insurance").

11/4    I posted the probability question the other day. It was nothing as
        complicated as MTBF or the like. My situation is very similar to
        looking at auto accident rates, asking if the rate of caraccidents
        for any given driver is N%/year, what is the chance that for a
        given day that driver will have a crash? N% or N/365% or something
        else? Thanks again.

        \_ Why the hell would anyone want to carjack an American car?
           Of all cars, the Civic is the best. Chop it up and sell
           for parts and you get 3-4X the return. American cars
           have very little value, especially in Japanese Car Loving

Click to enlarge pad Perfect for small scrapes or all-over repainting on German manufactured wheels. Brake dust is generated every time you driv e This dust accumulates to a thick later in just a few days. While brak e dust comes off relatively easily with soapy water and a sponge, it may actually leave minute scratches on alloy wheels. Not to mention those unsightly scrapes you g et from cutting corners too close. When cleaning isnt enough to make you r wheels shine, the only option may be repainting. Wurst Silver Lacquer Paint is formulated to perfectly match the shade of silver used by German auto manufacturers. Made in Germany, this touch-up paint is sold throughout Europe to manage the damage caused by the exce ssive brake dust produced by German cars. Now this product has found its way to the US to touch up German imports. If you have a German vehicl e, Wurst Silver Lacquer Paint should be in your garage. Wurth comes in a fine aerosol formula that coats evenly without globs or spatter. To apply to the whole wheel, it may be helpful to remove the wh eel from your vehicle. Thoroughly clean and degrease the wheel with Wurth Clean -Solve, or another quality degreaser. Spray li ghtly across the wheel back and forth, until it is covered. Do not apply a heavy coat and do not hold the can still. Spray the scuff with several light coats, allowi ng 30 minutes of drying between coats. Follow with Wurth High Gloss Lacquer Spray over the whole wheel for uniform shine. Dont replace scratched and scuffed whee ls when you can just repaint them with Wurth Silver LacquerSpray Paint, formulated specifically for German alloy wheels. To protect your wheels from the ravages of brake dust, apply a coat of Wh eel Wax. It seals and protects your wheels much like wax protects your p aint.
