Now there's someone of your ilk.

But aren't you the dilettante that exposed his naivete by
proposing that the largely ignored and thoroughly discredited
Penske Mercedes engine was some great technical advance?

Farty's expertise?! On what conceivable subject or basis
might that possibly be? His failure to correctly answer his
own proposed high school algebra test question? Due to
his absolute unfamiliarity with such concepts, his inability
to venture a guess to, or so much as recognize, the solution
of a (phonetically presented so that it couldn't easily be
researched) scientific riddle? His utter bamboozlement
vis-a-vis running methanol in an ethanol engine? Trust me,
he wouldn't know a Thevenin from a Norton equivalent
circuit, couldn't explain volumetric efficiency or differentiate
between laminar and turbulent flow if his life depended on
it, and probably believes that a Reynolds Number is likely
related to either tobacco or aluminum foil.
