Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because
1. You're now several kilometres away; and
2. You've got their shoes.

I can do better than that: the gala dinner for a global (and thoroughly capitalist) conference I attended was held in the Great Hall of the People in Tian an Men square (you know, the building next to Macdonalds'), where Mao once gave his rabble rousing speeches.
The thought that he might be spinning in his grave was a pleasurable one.

Whatever happened to the water powered car?
10 years ago the USA had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope, and Johnny Cash. Now we have no Jobs, no Hope, and no Cash.

Seriously, Colonel - - for those of us whose education in the physical sciences ended at the undergraduate level the hydrogen engine idea and the magnetic concepts in Denmark & Australia are fascinating. Why did this water engine car seem to work, and what are we to make of the magnetic energy devices?
