You know those folks in Wisconsin have the right idea ... rather than that wimpy "liquid glass" or whatever it is the government uses to permanently retire those clunkers, how about something a little more ... substantial?
This is from USA Today, and you can call it a modest proposal.
"This is pretty much a redneck car launch," said Mark Hubbard. "Don't get no better." On a beautiful Saturday afternoon last weekend, more than 300 people gathered at Moravitz Excavating to watch old cars race down a runway, launch into the air and crash into a gravel pit. It's the brainchild of Bob Moravitz. "You don't get to do this kind-of stuff very often," he said. "I mean, destruction of a car that really isn't worth nothing anyway. So let's just wreck it."
I wonder if the people who run this Cash For Clunkers program are paying attention to this? Nahh, I doubt it.
