>>>"a Ferrari, but engineered by people who went to college."
by Philip Greenspun <<<
I like and am touched by much of what Mr. Greenspun writes, but the above quote doesn't sit well. It is snobby. While I like the NSX alot, I'd rather have a Ferrari 355 GTB or GTS. As far as going to college, I could and do learn a great deal more from my father - in - law, a retired farmer from New Mexico with no college degree than he learns from me, an ex - physicist. I believe that an automobile is equal parts art and engineering, at best and the NSX lacks art in comparision. Too many engineers? Joel
