Odd how the BBC can put things in perspective

I guess it's been a long time since I've seen or done something that seemed completely improbable or unlikely or oddly profound.

Oddly enough, then, coming across this clip from Top Gear, the BBC show putatively concerned with cars, set me back a little.



Not to mention that it made my inner engineer a bit giddy.

Oh, hell, if the BBC is going to post it up, might as well put this good bit of editing and trivia in, too:

Let's see.... All things being equal, in a Veyron at top speed I could make it from my house to my office in about 5 minutes.

And if I saved every penny I earned *in* that office for about twenty years, I could afford to buy one.

Yup, that's perspective. Cheers Russellp.
