"Democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government.
It can only exist until voters discover they can vote themselves
largess (generous gifts) from the public treasury. From that moment
on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most
benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy
always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a
dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations
has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this
sequence: from spiritual faith to great courage; from courage to
liberty; from liberty to abundance; from abundance to complacency;
from complacency to apathy; from apathy to dependence; from
dependence back again to bondage.
(By Alexander Tyler Frasier, over 200 years ago.)

Dear Mr Preston,
Thank you very much for the physics lesson, pollution dissertation, and
medicinal prognoses, however, what just spewed out of your mouth probably
did more damage than what he's going to do. BAHAHAHAAHA! ;-B

Jon,the only way to light up the tires with a 3.9 is
by the aid of an accelerant,such as kerosene or a good
lighter fluid. :) There are a myriad of good tires
that aren`t expensive,and that are reputable. But from
what you describe,and if I understand properly,your
intentions are to purposely wear your tires out by
spinning your wheels at a higher velocity than the
mass of the vehicle is able be propelled,thereby
negating friction by the sudden propogation of torque
throughout the vehicle`s driveline. I cannot recommend
such an action at this time,and here`s why: Not only
will this bit of seemingly harmless folly degrade the
environment by the dispersion of insoluble pollutants
into our atmostphere,wreaking havoc with our
weather,creating ozone-depleting gasses,and actually
making the sun much hotter,but you will definitely
injure innocent bystanders,if not immediately by
flying debris,then over the course of their lifetimes
by debilitating conditions,not the least of which
including black lung disease,and simple chronic
halitosis. And let me warn you of the litany of
traffic violations you will no doubt incur by your
reckless actions,thereby offsetting the savings that
may be realized with the purchase of perhaps a
lesser-known tire brand,and creating unnecessary
tensions between yourself,and local law enforcement
officials.
(So go ahead and get some Coopers,they`re pretty good
tires). Steve P.
