Has anyone seen 'Junk Yard Wars' on TLC??? It is a British-based show where
two teams of people scour a junkyard for parts to build a vehicle or device for
a competition. It is very interesting: the first one I saw each team had to
build a tractor. The tractors were chained together for a tug-of-war of epic
proportions. I missed last night's shows, but 4 RAF engineers lost the battle
to 4 bikers in the quest to build an amphibious vehicle. Later that evening
the contest was to build a cannon.

Just something interesting for you gear heads out there.
