    Tomás de Torquemada was a Spanish Inquisitor General back in the good old days.

    He was a bit of a cunt, by all accounts.

    I've never heard him mentioned on Top Gear, though.

    He was awesome, though...just like 800 lb/ft of the other.

    I would add one thing to friend Clocker's summation:

    Between horsepower and torque, torque is the one that doesn't give a shit.

    Do I need to scan my physics notes about this? Torque is actually very simple...if you understand just a tad bit of physics.

    Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity is actually very simple...if you understand just a tad bit of Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity.

    Everything I learned about logic I got from M.C. Escher.

    Rocket science is actually very simple - it's hardly brain surgery.

    True. Women are the biggest mystery in the universe. Buy them a ring and bam, they love you. Ask for a sandwich, they hate you. I don't get it.
