A goal for these people? What kind of goal should we set?

I knew that Gaol would trick up some of the youngsters brought up on a diet of "Amurricanese..

Oh well, I suppose we should start changing our spellcheck to match the bulk of the English speaking world...

It's not illegal to replace the odometer for a lower km one (as far as I know)

Though it is illegal to KNOWINGLY advertise a car as having less km than it actually does.

I've had a couple of 70's cars and bikes where the odo only goes to 99,999 miles or km, but **** knows how many times around they've been!
