Should have stayed in school then. The French word for motor is moteur. What
does an EE have to do with cars?
The reason there is a flame fest is that Kenneth started calling people
names and swearing when someone disagreed with him.

Guess I am getting in late on this flame war but then I dropped out of
college...
Was studying to be a double E....
that would be in the field of OMG GUESS WHAT::::;E N G I N E E R I N G
and what was the uh thingy that makes an car go in the old days before
electric starter MOTORS that made the car become an automobile....
Besides in any foreign language that I looked up there is no equivalent for
the word "motor", but there is for "engine".....I am going to assume the
word "motor" has its roots in -----slang-----,,,to differentiate between the
hand crank engine and the electric start motor added to the engine...
If you get my meaning.....-----slang is acceptable in the crowd of
slangers------, but usually one would SHOw a greater respect for a thing
honored by calling it by its proper name.....
Now I know, cause I've been told, that many people here don't understand
what I am posting anyway.....so you may ignore the above and I won't feel
slighted at all.....
Unlike Kenneth....he is in awe of the SHO and honors the Yamaha 3.0L , 24 V
DOHC EFI Engine.
