I used to work for a large telecommunications company where I was part of designing and installing the 3G data network. As such, in 2001, we got the "color phones" before anyone else and we always called them Mobile Phones, even though it was PCS country. Later, after we realized that many software kings weren't up to the task of our user load, we called it the "Electronic Leash."
I think it's blasphemy that somone thinks they could use exhaust gases to power a turbo to make MORE power. Don't they know the energy it took to push the exhaust gases would negate the benifits of turbo charging?
I also think it's asinine that somone would use a supercharger, ran off of the crank pulley, to increase power of the egine too. Don't they realize they will probably get a decrease in gas mileage in the process, decreasing efficiency?
Obviously anyone using these systems are paying more for nothing more than a tweaked fuel map from the factory to properly tune the engine to making you feel as if you're seeing benifits from these systems. They're funded by the oil companies.

Perhaps time is speeding up from our point of view to make it appear as if the orbital velocity increases. Perhaps gravity affects objects differently than we suspect. Perhaps I am full of crap.
Not to mention, every job change I've had requires a huge relocation. When you have a family that can cost you thousands of dollars your new company will not spend. making lots of money is just an effect of Karma.
I think the difference in mindset hasn't been fully communicated here. Most IT professionls, after the crunch, were forced into a consultant mindset. I find that most IT jobs are for consultants or contract-to-hire jobs with limited vacation hours (if any) and lack luster health insurance policies (StarBridge, for example). This forces the IT professional to treat himself as being self-employed. Why would you want to make 30k/yr revenue for your own business? Why would you want to only get 30k out of the 100k that gets collected from your client? Consultants, generally, get the more tedius work so the *brilliant* native employees can surf the web and waste company dollars thinking about idiot ideas for contractors to work on. In this Union-esque environment, you better believe I'm going to get $40/hr or I'm going to just open my own business to make that money and live a more intelligent life.
At one of my previos jobs I was part of a team that 14 handled RADIUS servers that had over $200,000USD/min of stream going through them. For $50k/yr I was there to keep it from going down and bring it back up in case it did (Funk AWE RADIUS is the DEVIL!). Every minute saved in downtime paid for my salary 4 fold. I quit eventually to get more money as my value was underappreciated. Note, we only had RADIUS stream blockages for less than 20min a year across 12 POPs. We even designed a new method of transport because we reached a bottleneck in how fast the UDP RADIUS stream can send accounting streams. We weren't your average admins, yet were paid as such.

Wouldn't a score of 0 on Informative nullify "Informative?"
Aluminium engines also subject to this?
