How many of you machine-heads have actually seen a real steam roller?
I doubt the press has. Anyone who is not gay actually refer to your
dog as a "pooch"? (that could be an east-west thing though)
Who assigns the word "turbo" to something that does not incorporate an
acual turbine?
I really get a kick out of it when i ask someone if an item is made of
brass or aluminum respond "no, its metal".
Stupid is as stupid does.
I think I saw a "steam shovel" once when I was about 6 yrs old.
That was 69 yrs ago. As to the "pooch", yes we (lots/most)
people called smalish dogs pooch, if there wasent an obvious
better name available, back in PA when I was growing up.
As to "turbo" that has become the latest greatest thingo.

How about "Battery or electric"?
"billet"
Yeah. Ever try to explain to a salesman
why a forging could be better than a billet-
made part?
