I had a friend that would have argued with me to the death that my car was supposed to have a propellor.

I thougt that the idea of an aphibious car was so silly that I discounted the idea outright, only later did I find that the amphi-car actually existed, and used some morris engine in it.

Watching one in action on TV gave me the willies. Didnt look like it needed much of a wake to swamp it.
