Almost nobody knows that the key is to brake harder earlier, rather       than braking harder later, and, most importantly, NOT leaving your foot on       the pedal at the stop.              I've never met a person in my life who was adamant that his rotors warped       who had ever measured the warp they're so very certain happened, that       didn't.              It's one more case of how shockingly stupid most people are.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
