But it never says what the results were! Did it reduce the "loudness" by 10%? 50%? 90%? Using what kind of weighting?

Hey, we're Americans! We hate meaningful facts, 'cause we're too stupid to understand context.

That's one one the stupidest things I've read on /.. Taking the tram around Prague was a no-brainer for a Bush-loving Republican like me.

Of course, taking the Washington Metro and the NYC Subway (during Guiliani's Mayoraly) was easy, safe & clean also.

You must not have any kids. An econo-box hatchback just doesn't have enough room for the whole family plus a week's worth of groceries or luggage for a long weekend out in the country.

A real full-sized (as opposed to what they call full-sized nowadays) wagon or sedan would be fine, but no one makes those anymore, except for Mercedes 300 and BMW 700 series cars, and "normal" people can't afford them.
