Hal and Simon argue all the time about whether planes or cars are superior modes of transportation. It gets real intense when they start talking in mechanical engineering terms that none of the other Earth GLs understand. One time John dared to suggest that high speed rail is more efficient and better for city planning, and the two of them immediately punted him into the stratosphere.

This was a Car Club event in a small town next to Greenville (home to ECU) called Winterville in Eastern North Carolina. This was 3 or 4 years ago and the club used to meet on Saturdays during the summer to show off their cars and just generally stand around and bullshit about cars. I just happened to be driving by and stopped. I have more photos of this event if I can just find them.
