Mitsubishi: We've Been Cheating On Fuel Tests For 25 years (cnn.com)
An anonymous reader cites an article on CNN:The situation at Mitsubishi Motors just went from bad to much, much worse. The Japanese automaker admitted Tuesday that it had falsified fuel efficiency tests for the past quarter century (warning: annoying autoplay videos, alternate source), the latest revelation in a scandal that has rocked the company. The automaker said last week that it had used improper fuel economy tests on hundreds of thousands of vehicles, including some sold to Nissan. Cars with inflated fuel efficiency ratings were sold only in Japan. Mitsubishi said it would ask lawyers from outside the company to investigate the tests.
Yeah, it's pretty sad. Everything has aligned, and the numbers add up. They're boxed in.
-- For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word. That begs the question, "who cares"?
For all intents and purposes, your sig is an example of why we have a problem. Lazy fucktards who think "you knew what I meant" is the same thing as "communication."
