Too right!  Down with all this modern crap!  If it was good enough for
great-great-great-great-grandpappy, it's good enough for the rest of ya.
Bring back vacuum tubes, F-cells and accumulators.  Silicon chips, bah
humbug.  And I'll have you know my car gets forty rods to the hogshead, and
that's the way I like it.

Someone should go & measure up Queen Lizzie, so we know how long a yard is
supposed to be.
