What are you talking about? The salespeople wanted you to get away from their display stands and stop annoying them. A visit from Security was threatened more than once. Autographs indeed.

Actually, Sledge, Pravis Prime did give his autograph. I think you may have been off looking at something else at the time, but he had to sign for a ticket he got for loitering. I kept as far in the distance as I could.

LOL! Perhaps, but I didn't get nearly tossed out for leaving owl pellets at GM, unlike some member of our group!

Owl pellets, bread crumbs, whatever.

GM just gobbled them up, and you were left high and dry. Rich and I finally found you in a daze. You had time warped to a previous auto show and were admiring the new AMC Gremlin.

Why didn't you use something totally useless to GM, such as average and/or instantaneous MPG displays?

Oh, were you lost in the Toyota and Honda exhibits as well?

Tell us, was there any exhibit there that you weren't lost in?

Then you must have been lost in every one - unless we went to different auto shows.
