California is not representative of the rest of the country in

Keeping a car spanky clean lowers its aerodynamic drag, thus reducing the
required road load horsepower and improving the brake specific fuel
consumption, thus lowering smog producing NOx and other noxius emissions,
thus improving the quality of regional airsheds and reducing the number of
asthma related illnesses.

It also preserves the appearance of the vehicle thus prolonging its economic
value and lowering its life cycle impact to own and operate, thus yielding
better return on investment, thus resulting on lower debt service costs,
thus strengthening our overall economy.

But thats not why I keep my car clean. I clean it because I want it to look
as nice as my nice clean bicycle.

Nor are Californians representative of California. At least in my case. We
keep our car paint protected from the nasty stuff in the atmosphere by
making sure there's a thin (usually thin, sometimes it can get rather thick)
coating of dust on all surfaces. This also saves on post-it notes, since I
can leave a message to my wife on our windows.

You've got to be a government bureaucrat of some type. I'm dizzy from that
awesome spin.

Maybe we need a late-night infomercial on How to Be a Usenet Troll.

Education, education, education.

<< Why they must kept their car clean

Because: the car is often an individual's most prized possession, and many feel
the car--the model, the accessories, the shinyness level--reflects
profoundly on the individual who drives it. They are
hoping, anyway, that it does.

Also, the serial car-washers have no sense that water is a scarce resource,
even while living in a desert.

In short, the frequency of car-washing episodes could
be just another symptom of an underlying stupidity that has swept across the
continent like a chinook wind through our amber waves of grain.
An ultra-clean bicycle, on the other hand, is a sign
of darker prospects: mental illness, crystal
meth addiction, or non-use of said bicycle.

Ah, thats what I thought too.

It means your soul has been sucked out by ridiculous consumerist values.

Not suckered, went there by choice.
Do you not enjoy nice things?
Do you not keep you clothes clean?
Are they not a reflection of yourself?
Do you not keep your dweling clean?
Is it not a reflection of yourself?

I am currently looking at handing down the mini-van to my wife so she can
get rid of the POS toyota and drive an adult car.
At the same time I very much like the new Dodge mini-van with the fold away
seats, now I dont have to leave one in the garage whe I want to put more
than 2 bike in it.

I said "sucked".

But if you want the best conspiracy theory of the lot - it was engineered
that way by your government and you swallowed it.

you talk about almost every man and woman and even every color of skin
retain as much clean as possible on their most prized possession. There
is something obsess about shining bright clean perfect car in the
American mentality. This thing did not happen in 20 years ago.
There is something going on here that nobody can't explanin.

Yes, it did. I remember even college kids going out and washing their
cars every weekend. I don't, but many did.

Brings a smile to me. Back in the 70s, a great uncle of mine used his car only
once a week, for a very few miles. The car was old even then, but it was
*immaculate*. After every single use the inside was cleaned & polished and the
outside washed, waxed & polished. It *gleamed*

Of course it did. Well, maybe not in alternate universes. It also
happened in Bangkok when I was there 25 years ago. It was also a
feature at the Boden See campgrounds when I was there 45 years ago -
have a picture showing about six people cleaning everything from VWs
to motorcycle powered vehicles (think the tandem is a Messerschmitt,
but not sure of the side-by-side with the weird out-pivoting door).

People who have a prized possession, whether it a chromed Buick or a
teak-on-truck frame or small Messerschmitt, take care of it, including
cleaning it.

I also clean my bikes. Is that OK in your alternate universe?

I see you conspicuously did not answer my questions.

They were not rhetorical, I would love an answer.

Are you one of those smelly hippies?

Do you not enjoy nice things?
Do you not keep you clothes clean?
Are they not a reflection of yourself?
Do you not keep your dwelling clean?
Is it not a reflection of yourself?

You might consider asking in a more appropriate newsfroup. I see
from groups.google.com that you're familiar with _many_ other
newsfroups; you've been to some that would certainly be more
appropriate, such as:
rec.autos.makers.chrysler [or just rec.autos]
soc.culture.usa
alt.rush-limbaugh
alt.lifestyle.master-slave
and so on.

So, how's your '89 Honda doing? Valve cover still well torqued? Did
you successfully change your transmission fluid? How about the
mileage on your '91 Honda? And what was the problem with the '91
Honda not starting?

I see nobody replied to your question about taking a $3000 Cisco
course. I took a one-week, $3000 CCNA crash course, and aced my CCNA
test, but I've always been good at that sort of thing. Lot of good
it did me, nobody wanted a CCNA around here.

You should be more careful to use appropriate cooling for expensive
CPUs.

I see you really strongly dislike US culture, and are quick to make
hasty generalizations:

Quoted message said:

Poland will have not have good time. Poland is not Germany. Germany is doing
better than a former Nazi era. German folks learn the lesson from the
Nazi era not like American racist who will be the forever racist people on
earth.

and here too:

Quoted message said:

Yeah racists, criminals, hustlers do run this country. Go visit any
big open
state country, you will see swamping of KKK, neo-nazi terrorists
everywhere. These scums are very violent folks. They want to fight. I
dunno why they want to fight. Look at the Hollywood script. What's all
about? it's about criminal
story.

As well, you're quick with the hasty generalizations of another
culture:

Quoted message said:

Two items most black people want: a bright shining goddamn basketball
shoes
and [censored] violent Xbox video GAME. Black people the new leader of
the nihilistic materialistic culture. Black people don't give any [censored]
about anything other than loud goddamn hip-hop gangster music, violent
video game, and basketball shoes.

In fact, I see you don't like much of anybody's culture:

Quoted message said:

Boy this is what happen when the whole [censored] nation (china, taiwan,
etc) can't maintain their [censored] lifestyle. Why is that there are so
many
[censored] in PRC is not even enough that they have to get out all over the
They are way too way [censored] in this world. This is not even enough for
Last time bunch of [censored] enslaved in Israel..Now same human
self-slavery in UK.

Strangely, it seems you have a soft spot for US workers:

Quoted message said:

This indicates that Bush adminstration is not working American people
his adminstration is controlld by corporations. See Bush doesn't
give [censored]
about American workers whether they have job or not as long as it
benefits
for corporation then his missions accomplished. This means AMerican
people those so called conservative are deceived by Bush's lying and
deception. Bush does not work for American people! He is working for
big coporation. He is
the President for the corporation not for american working citizens.

and here too:

Quoted message said:

YOu can't protest in america anymore. You protest you go to jail.
That's the
policy set by Bush adminstration. No more protest. Union member has no
right
to protest which is shown by the brutal harrassment by Miami police to
the peaceful protesters.

You obviously care for firearm rights, but you seem to HATE native
americans:

Quoted message said:

BEcause gun reserves the special right for America. Right to bear
arm is
what makes great AMerica. Think of the American history, this great
nation is built on by using firearm to kill indians. That's right. Who
cares about Indian
anyways? Gun is the key to the American revolution and democracy. Give
the
gun to every household to make sure the Second Amendment is implement
it.

I can't tell what you're saying, nor how you feel, here:

Quoted message said:

You never worry about a japanese car was stolen. Your racist
comment about japanese and foreigner are very nice. I like that.
Time to buy good old american made steel. I like that too 🙂

I nearly laughed out loud when I saw you, of all people, say this:

Quoted message said:

Don't feed the trolling ass like Phil!

So, pack up your trolls, and drop them off at another newsfroup,
please.

I'm not sure universe happy with shining bright American cars.
Universe does not know what car wash is. It's your!
You create it. YOu wash it. You possess it. You obsess it!
AT the end of time, it says "hello nice car but sorry you can't
take it with you. We only take your body part!"
