For years I thought Tom was the first chair brother. It took some adjusting when I learned that he was the more knuckle-headed one who couldn't remember the solution to last week's puzzler. I'll miss the galoot. http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2014/11/03/360340663/car-talk-co-host-tom-magliozzi-dies-at-77

And being so entertaining was just a bonus. RIP! Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov
