"Chevy Nova". :) My first car was a Chevy Nova Super Sport with a 350 cubic inch engine, and the expression "No va" definitely did not apply to it. It saved my life on several occasions. If someone was heading toward me and was about to hit me (as happened a few times), I could just lightly tap the accelerator and be long gone from the spot before they arrived. They don't make cars with that kind of "get up and go" anymore. But the name did hurt the car in foreign markets. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
