Sounds like a lie but it s true… A reader writes: I had to defer the exams for one of my degree units for two years. It was Medieval French and I had not touched the subject during those two years. I was OK with the literature part of the exam, but for part of it I also had to translate a text into English. The night before, I panicked, went to the uni library, selected a book in Medieval French at random from the shelves, opened it at random and translated a page. Then I thought sod it and went off to the bar. When I got into the exam the next day and looked at the text, it was the exact passage I had translated the night before.

As to your wanting the precise displacement or power / torque output to be advertised rather than those figure to be rounded off, well, that is mentioned in the technical specifications - but how does that help most technically challenged car buyers?It is not that I want the the manufacturers to advertise the exact displacement/power figures, rather I am trying to understand why they are not close to the classification mark if not exactly that number. And the lesser informed vehicle buyers in the rural and semi urban usually are aware of the displacement of their vehicles more than anything. Displacement is a great marketing tool. This reminds me of an incident which happened more than a decade ago. My colleague back then, an electrical engineer, proudly claimed his Apache 160 to be FAR superior to my Yamaha Fz just because his bike engine was about 6CCs bigger than mine! (Apache was infact about 1bhp more powerful, which the gentleman had no idea about)
