This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Local TV newsclowns are so cute when they play journalist. "And that minicar costs about $3 to fill up compared to about $60 for his minivan." Yeah thanks Anderson Cooper, that's a really insightful comparison! Who does your hair?
Anyway, I'm glad the guy's invention gets him around town - essentially a go-cart that's practical. Alternatives are good.
They will use anything but metric.
