California is not representative of the rest of the country

Keeping a car spanky clean lowers its aerodynamic drag, thus
reducing the required road load horsepower and improving the
brake specific fuel consumption, thus lowering smog
producing NOx and other noxius emissions, thus improving the
quality of regional airsheds and reducing the number of
asthma related illnesses.

It also preserves the appearance of the vehicle thus
prolonging its economic value and lowering its life cycle
impact to own and operate, thus yielding better return on
investment, thus resulting on lower debt service costs, thus
strengthening our overall economy.

But thats not why I keep my car clean. I clean it because I
want it to look as nice as my nice clean bicycle.

Nor are Californians representative of California. At least
in my case. We keep our car paint protected from the nasty
stuff in the atmosphere by making sure there's a thin
(usually thin, sometimes it can get rather thick) coating of
dust on all surfaces. This also saves on post-it notes,
since I can leave a message to my wife on our windows.

You've got to be a government bureaucrat of some type. I'm
dizzy from that awesome spin.

Maybe we need a late-night infomercial on How to Be a
Usenet Troll.

Education, education, education.

<< Why they must kept their car clean all the time? >>

Because: the car is often an individual's most prized
possession, and many feel the car--the model, the
accessories, the shinyness level--reflects profoundly on
the individual who drives it. They are hoping, anyway,
that it does.

Also, the serial car-washers have no sense that water is a
scarce resource, even while living in a desert.

In short, the frequency of car-washing episodes could be
just another symptom of an underlying stupidity that has
swept across the continent like a chinook wind through our
amber waves of grain. An ultra-clean bicycle, on the other
hand, is a sign of darker prospects: mental illness, crystal
meth addiction, or non-use of said bicycle.

Ah, thats what I thought too.

It means your soul has been sucked out by ridiculous
consumerist values.

Not suckered, went there by choice. Do you not enjoy nice
things? Do you not keep you clothes clean? Are they not a
reflection of yourself? Do you not keep your dweling clean?
Is it not a reflection of yourself?

I am currently looking at handing down the mini-van to my
wife so she can get rid of the POS toyota and drive an adult
car. At the same time I very much like the new Dodge mini-
van with the fold away seats, now I dont have to leave one
in the garage whe I want to put more than 2 bike in it.

I said "sucked".

But if you want the best conspiracy theory of the lot - it
was engineered that way by your government and you
swallowed it.

you talk about almost every man and woman and even
every color of skin retain as much clean as possible
on their most prized possession. There is something
obsess about shining bright clean perfect car in the
American mentality. This thing did not happen in 20
years ago. There is something going on here that
nobody can't explanin.

Yes, it did. I remember even college kids going out and
washing their cars every weekend. I don't, but many did.

Of course it did. Well, maybe not in alternate universes. It
also happened in Bangkok when I was there 25 years ago. It
was also a feature at the Boden See campgrounds when I was
there 45 years ago - have a picture showing about six people
cleaning everything from VWs to motorcycle powered vehicles
(think the tandem is a Messerschmitt, but not sure of the
side-by-side with the weird out-pivoting door).

People who have a prized possession, whether it a chromed
Buick or a teak-on-truck frame or small Messerschmitt, take
care of it, including cleaning it.

I also clean my bikes. Is that OK in your alternate
universe?

I see you conspicuously did not answer my questions.

They were not rhetorical, I would love an answer.

Are you one of those smelly hippies?

Do you not enjoy nice things? Do you not keep you
clothes clean? Are they not a reflection of yourself? Do
you not keep your dwelling clean? Is it not a reflection
of yourself?

You might consider asking in a more appropriate newsfroup. I
see from groups.google.com that you're familiar with _many_
other newsfroups; you've been to some that would certainly
be more appropriate, such as: rec.autos.makers.chrysler [or
just rec.autos] soc.culture.usa alt.rush-limbaugh alt.lifestyle.master-
slave and so on.

So, how's your '89 Honda doing? Valve cover still well
torqued? Did you successfully change your transmission
fluid? How about the mileage on your '91 Honda? And what was
the problem with the '91 Honda not starting?

I see nobody replied to your question about taking a $3000
Cisco course. I took a one-week, $3000 CCNA crash course,
and aced my CCNA test, but I've always been good at that
sort of thing. Lot of good it did me, nobody wanted a CCNA
around here.

You should be more careful to use appropriate cooling for
expensive CPUs.

I see you really strongly dislike US culture, and are quick
to make hasty generalizations:

Quoted message said:

Poland will have not have good time. Poland is not Germany.
Germany is doing better than a former Nazi era. German
folks learn the lesson from the Nazi era not like American
racist who will be the forever racist people on earth.

and here too:

Quoted message said:

Yeah racists, criminals, hustlers do run this country. Go
visit any big open state country, you will see swamping of
KKK, neo-nazi terrorists everywhere. These scums are very
violent folks. They want to fight. I dunno why they want to
fight. Look at the Hollywood script. What's all about? it's
about criminal story.

As well, you're quick with the hasty generalizations of
another culture:

Quoted message said:

Two items most black people want: a bright shining goddamn
basketball shoes

Quoted message said:

the nihilistic materialistic culture. Black people
don't give any [censored] about anything other than loud
goddamn hip-hop gangster music, violent video game, and
basketball shoes.

In fact, I see you don't like much of anybody's culture:

Quoted message said:

Boy this is what happen when the whole [censored] nation (china,
taiwan, etc) can't maintain their [censored] lifestyle. Why is
that there are so many [censored] in PRC is not even enough that
they have to get out all over the They are way too way
[censored] in this world. This is not even enough for Last time
bunch of [censored] enslaved in Israel..Now same human self-
slavery in UK.

Strangely, it seems you have a soft spot for US workers:

Quoted message said:

This indicates that Bush adminstration is not working
American people his adminstration is controlld by
corporations. See Bush doesn't give [censored] about American
workers whether they have job or not as long as it
benefits for corporation then his missions accomplished.
This means AMerican people those so called conservative
are deceived by Bush's lying and deception. Bush does not
work for American people! He is working for big
coporation. He is the President for the corporation not
for american working citizens.

and here too:

Quoted message said:

YOu can't protest in america anymore. You protest you go to
jail. That's the policy set by Bush adminstration. No more
protest. Union member has no right to protest which is
shown by the brutal harrassment by Miami police to the
peaceful protesters.

You obviously care for firearm rights, but you seem to HATE
native americans:

Quoted message said:

BEcause gun reserves the special right for America. Right
to bear arm is what makes great AMerica. Think of the
American history, this great nation is built on by using
firearm to kill indians. That's right. Who cares about
Indian anyways? Gun is the key to the American revolution
and democracy. Give the gun to every household to make sure
the Second Amendment is implement
it.

I can't tell what you're saying, nor how you feel, here:

Quoted message said:

You never worry about a japanese car was stolen. Your
racist comment about japanese and foreigner are very nice.
I like that. Time to buy good old american made steel. I
like that too 🙂

I nearly laughed out loud when I saw you, of all
people, say this:

Quoted message said:

Don't feed the trolling ass like Phil!

So, pack up your trolls, and drop them off at another
newsfroup, please.

The thing about cars is that no matter how many times you

I'm not sure universe happy with shining bright American
cars. Universe does not know what car wash is. It's your!
You create it. YOu wash it. You possess it. You obsess it!
AT the end of time, it says "hello nice car but sorry you
can't take it with you. We only take your body part!"
