    OK, so the process is only valid if you can see out of your rear view mirror. Try to impart some basic knowlege on a bunch of gear heads - what dya get - GRIEF.

    Zeus, I like your solution. I bet the added visibility comes in handy with all that extra 0.05% throttle response.

    Put a smiley after you say that Bub.

    i think the most important thing is to know where your blind spots are.. i adjusted my mirrors to where i liked them and using a parked car in a fairly empty parking lot to check exactly where my blind spots are, now i know exactly what i can and cant see

    I reworked the math & it comes out to 0.06% so I'll accept your rounding up

    No lightning bolts down my shorts this time.

    Don't make me gimp over there & smack your smart ***.

    I was thinking about it the other day. When I told you to call me Vulcan, I was actually thinking about Thor ... ooops. Vulcan had a gimpy leg & let Zeus whop his butt. Thor is cool tho. Can I change or am I stuck with Vulcan.

    Nah, that's no good... How about Hephaestus? That way you can keep your hammer to split my head open, yet remain ugly AND crippled!

    I'll stick with Vulcan. As an underworld figure I'll be all set to take care of business when you're on the submarine tunnel portion of your cruise (insert evil laugh).
