Another smart in the news article...

In a word, this car is Smart

Last year, Mercersburg Academy purchased a Smart car to use as a security vehicle. Spokesperson Lindsay Tanton said the car replaced a less efficient Chevrolet Trailblazer. "They were running all day long, so it made a lot of sense," she said. The car was a big hit with students. "When it first arrived on campus, it was a mini-celebrity. Everybody wanted their picture with it," Tanton said. "It's been very popular."

I liked the article, but get so incensed by the comments made by people who just don't think (or even be capable of thinking).

The gloves were off on this one.

There's just no cure for ignorance, is there?
