harrier ear-rings and you reckon she's one-of-a-kind?
I'll name that motor in one: the pegasus. current harrier is some three times
more powerful than the original, and it's taken until now for anyone else to
design a practicable replacement for this "contraption". there was this
simpsons episode the other night, where play was made on the US-dependence on
this fine machine- I dunno exactly how much, but there must be some truth in
this. we do like inventing things over here- it's a shame we can't
legitimately lay claim to ∗all∗ of the clever stuff, like tape-replay
keyboards.... but we do have some quality engineers in the UK.
