Thanks for the correction, Martin.  You're of course right, now that I
think back on it.  The VW in the air definitely made a lasting
impression, even if an inaccurate one.

Wasn't there a science center somewhere that did have a long lever where
visitors could lift up a platform with a car or truck on it?  Or did I
just wish for that when I was at Science City?
