Whats all this talk I hear about flying Corvairs.  These are very old now and should be in a museum.  We also don't have the proper fuel to run these engines anymore.   and By the way,  Didnt that green Nader guy say these were unsafe at any speed?  and you yahoo's want to fly them, unbelievable.  

Oh, whats that,...you said Corsairs,  Oh,...Never mind.
