Many of the car magazines do road tests on such things as the Budweiser horsedrawn beerwagen, the NASA crawler that transported the Saturn V rocket, and a variety of other strange vehicles in their April issues. They also print outlandish articles as part of the
fun. I'll be the first to admit that I've been caught by some of the strange articles here, and in print. When I figure out that I was "had", I simply salute those that were clever enough to slip one by me -and then I go put salt in the sugar bowl to "April Fool" someone on a far less intellectual level. Let's move on, admit they got us, and get back to discussing Ercoupes and flying. Michael J. Nutt Warren, MI
