2008 Green Car of the Year

Forget Formula 1.  Forget racing.  Forget automobiles.  Racism is bigger than all of these things.  Racism has been around longer than automotive racing and will continue to be...

The helpdesk is becoming more of a helpless desk.  Instead of people figuring out their own problems, they immediately submit a request for help.  I find myself answering more questions like “I can’t find the button!  Where did it go?” with “right here, in front of your face.” Maybe there should be a 24 hour moratorium on all new requests that don’t represent...
