The Economist just published a deeply-researched story about car bloat, and it's very, very damning:

The Queen Mother told @MaureenMcTeer "I always tell my grand-children that they must be themselves & do what they believe best in life. Don't be bothered by criticism. Good luck... Ms. McTeer." It's moments like that - between courageous women - that make all the difference. 4/4
