What's the line from the end of "The Man Who Shot
Liberty Valance?"

"When the truth conflicts with the legend, print the
legend."

Thus all 911s reverse direction without warning or
provocation, all Alfas are rusty and unreliable (and
all Alfisti cheap), all M.G. owners spend more time
frobbing the carburettors than driving, all FWD cars
understeer when you get on the gas, etc. etc. etc.

And nothing you or I can say, do, demonstrate or teach
will ever change that.
