[Vwdiesel] Quantum lives...

[82 Diesel Westy]

That is the kind of thing that is and will continue to
kill us all.  Greed and money, take today and do not
worry about my kids or grand kids.  I like to drink
good scotch, live in a house 5 times to big for my
needs, pay an American land scarper who in turn only
hires Mexican day labors to do his lawn and drive the
big SUV with extra large diesel engine that gets
12MPG.  All perks on us, the tax payer.

When will it end?
