Damn strait, Ernst!  And it gets worse!  I know, FOR A FACT, that a lot
of the EV test cars actually had Briggs & Stratton Lawnmower engines
hidden inside!  Those Pinko Greens have fabricated elaborate mufflers
in order to disguise the exhaust noise of the engines.  We have reason
to believe that this effort was partially funded by Fidel Castro.  I
just thank my lucky stars that we have a couple of sharp cookies like
you and ol' George there to keep them dang Greens honest.
