Some Trivia as I know it.... Login - Sign Up

* Henry Ford did NOT invent the automobile. He did perfect the assembly line and interchangable parts. He was terrible to empoyees and made his own bolts and threads that were unique and you had to get them from Ford. FYI I like Fords.

* I think the first internal combustion engine was invented in China and it used gun powder at first for fuel. I think they invented that too.

* Italy did not invent pasta - again I think that was China!

* way2old (a member here) and I may be of few people on the web that could tell you how to adjust dual point distributors and dual carbs. Cool old saying "Old Age and Treachery Will Overcome Youth and Skill." Smile I have my share of gray hair and glad I have THAT!

Just fun and enjoy the site. T
