Concur on the non spec wizbang skoooopppss. Good way to burn up an engine
in traffic. The surface rust mentioned on the site shows some real optimism
at play, IMAABO (InMyArrogantAndBiasedOpinion).

Wizbang sells. Taking money from both the discriminate and indiscriminate
fools pervasive in this society is becoming an economic foundation of sand
which cannot stand for long. You can now be a psychic hot-line millionaire
webmaster from a Bus on a beach in Belize. For now, all you would have to
add is a few solar panels to power the hardware. In a few more years, it
will be Dick Tracy wristwatch solar powered interface only required for web
site hype maintenance.

Value is not in the eye of the beholder if the beholder sees value in
something unproved.
