I witnessed The Great Mercury Comet of 1964. Most comets round-off as they
age, but the Mercury Comet got square between 1963 and 1964. Sales suffered
after the squarification, so maybe Ford should have rounded it off even
more, instead.

Yes, that one! I'll bet that guy drives his really fast too, and it's not
rounded off at all. Until he crashes...
