   Hi Jolly Roger,   
      
   I could say kudos to you for knowing the difference, and I'm happy that you   
   do know the difference, but the fact remains it's one of the most basic of   
   the simplest terms that people who race would know from the very start.]   
      
   It's like when Chris claimed to have a PhD in the life sciences and yet he   
   ridiculed the use of "vehicle" which is a basic immunological term.   
      
   And it's the same with nospam, who claims to be a developer and yet he's   
   constantly wrong about almost everything there is about writing code.   
      
   I don't claim to be a developer, for example, and yet I've published tested   
   source for more apps in this one thread than nospam in his entire life.

   I shouldn't be "impressed" that you know the difference between a bimmer   
   and a beemer because it's basic - but - for an iKook - it's a good start.   
      
   Kudos to you for knowing.   
   I'm duly impressed an iKook actually knows a basic automotive racing term.
