Now be nice Lisi, I was trying to be. In those days, and even yet in Amish country, the horse drawn carriage is the biggest traffic hazard extant. Horses occasionally think they know a better way. Raised on an Iowa farm, I learned 75 years ago that they are not the sharpest tack in the box. Never got the chance to drive a hot Alfa, but was invited to turn a Mercedes 300 SLR loose once, and found it was quite possible to run out of road by the time you snick it into 3rd gear. I had just repaired the radio in it. A Telefunkin of course. Gee, that was almost 60 years ago. In those days I thought nothing of going places sensible angels don't.
