    Master glass blower is an understatement. That is really beautiful.

    Back during the CB boom I met an old German fellow/engineer who did that sort of thing with model trains...built his rolling stock entirely from scratch.

    "Old world craftsmanship" really isn't a buzz-phrase with some folk.

    I am not impressed. The thing doesn't even have variable valve timing.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
