Didn't Lotus do a "Change the rules" advertising campaign. lol. Maybe this is what they were talking about. I say we set up a cage match at LOG!

I've always kind of like Loti myself when referring to multiple Lotus cars, but lately I have been just using "Lotus" as I thought general consensus among owners was this was the proper plural. I think given the rest of the context, we usually know that the other person is talking about multiple vehicles.

I still say we bring an octagon to LOG.

I put closed circuit TVs in the headrests, with the camera pointed out the back so people have to stare at themselves on TV.

Tim, I've written to Merriam Webster on an issue before (for a TV show I was working on) and they will make a ruling. Will you accept that the authority for spelling, that is the accepted arbiter for the patent and trademark office, the gov't, and for every school system in the US is the final arbiter on this issue? I will send them the letter and your comments. I'll accept their verdict will you? Or do you honestly believe anyone gets to make their own rules for the spelling of a word that is already in existence and accepted rules be damned?
I wanna know what happened with this??? Did Josh ever write M-W?

Sorry to bring this thread back, but...

I was at the local Sonic drive-in car gathering tonight and had thread flashbacks. There was somebody there with a Harley-Davidson VRod, that for the most part had some nice mods. Had a rear tire about half again the width of my Elises rear tire, Great custom body work, great paint Was done as a single seat sport bike setup.

The kicker was... built into the seat, just back of where the riders butt goes, and just forward of a little fiberglass cover that hid the passenger seat, was a TV. The screen pointed straight up, and was about 6 in wide, and maybe 3 in tall.

Don't know how it didn't get sat on. I have no idea where the DVD player (Ipod??) was, but there was a move playing on the lcd screen. Was really a clean install, if the whole thing want so sad.

...at least there's the possibility of a pillion passenger sitting back to see the screen - what would have been far cooler would be a display in the back of the pillion backrest instead...
