      It's "darn", not "dam".

      So one is a cylindrical car and one has a cylindrical engine?

        While I was running up the stairs some minutes ago, something that I usually find myself thinking is that I have several skills that are really worthless. For example, I am very good at walking and running silently. And they are worthless because: 1 - I'm not a criminal 2 - The job market for Ninjas is really low nowadays. I have many skills that I'm really good at but are worthless because they don't matter anymore or it makes no difference in my life or in other people's lives. What are your worthless skills?

            I had to copy and paste to Notepad and have a look in Courier New to see that you were correct.

                  Pretty good at visualizing the correct/fastest line through a corner. Useless because: 1. I am not a race driver. 2. I (now) drive responsibly.
