Karl, don't forget that you are supposed to turn those duck beaks to the inside
of the tire to mute the quack that emits with each squish. Turn them to the
outside attracts to much attention from the motorized gendarmes. Turned to the
inside, all wheels in unison gives a muted roar like a small engine running
strong  with glass-pacs.
