"Forearms hard as rocks, our hero grabs the chromium handle. And with
a flick of the wrist, puts the beast in Drive..."

In a message dated 98-10-18 18:28:53 EDT, you write:
<< Based on RPM, engine sound, road conditions, and a billion
other variables completely foreign to an auto tranny, my amazing
supercomputer-like brain computes the precise gear I should be in as I
push
in the clutch, and bring up the rpm's. Biceps rippling, I slam the stick
into
the proper gear and the clutch is already on its way back up. The
power
kicks
in like a JATO rocket burrowing into my chest. My radar detector tears
off
the
windshield with an unholy shriek and smashes through the rear
window. The
tires
smoke, the front end raises 3 feet, the asphault wrinkles as it bleeds
molten
rubber, and I'm screamin' down the road executing the remaining shifts
with
perfect timing and precision. Babies cry, men cringe in fear, and women
stare
adoringly. In mere seconds, I dissapear over the horizon and become
nothing
more than a memory. The local elders will pass the legend of the manual
tranny
down through the generations. It is said that one day this warrior will
return
to free the world of the tyranny of the auto trannies forever. (Editors
note:
the preceding paragraph may have contained slight dramatization.)

Heh heh heh! And I'd like to keep it that way, if possible. ;-)
