Mostly because of the very high compression, and the explosion happening
in the cylinder as the diesel fuel is being ignited.

TPBM would like to go to Mississippi and help Dan drink all that beer....

I can, it's land created by setting up a dyke in the sea and then pump it dry. About 1/3 of The Netherlands is made of this used-to-be-bottom-of-the-sea. The reason why they call it the lowlands, it's actually lower then the water on the other side of the dyke.

TPMB would rather l;ive in the mountains

Not as often as I used too, now use other ways to watch them...

TPBM understands what I mean by other ways to get movies instead of renting them.

Yep, I use wireless on my wifes laptop. My own computer is just wired and next to the modem. I'm kinda old-fashioned in that way, you know.

TPBM uses Linux as OS

Its better since I put SP1 on it and overall it has some nice features on which when it doesn't crash it is better than XP (functionality wise). Generally though I prefer XP SP3 which I have on my desktop because it is more stable (and it looks the same as Vista as I customised it to do so)...

TPBM doesn't like Vista...
