This would make about the 12th time that Peter Egan's April 1996 Side
Glances column has been posted to this list.

 From <http://www.swapmeetdave.com/Humor/Workshop/Definitions.htm>

These hilarious automotive tool definitions have been floating around
on the Internet for some time now with no credit to the author.
Sensitive to such things because people have plagiarized and out-and-
out stolen stuff that I've written, I decided to track down the
author. Much to my surprise and pleasure, it was none other than
Peter Egan, one of my all-time favorite automotive writers. This
piece originally appeared in Road & Track, April 1996 in Peter's
column, Side Glances. The original column has a half-page
introduction and some additional definitions, so I recommend you try
to obtain that issue of R&T. It was also reprinted in the book, Side
Glances, Vol. 2, 1992-1997 by Peter Egan, published by Brooklands
Books Ltd., a wonderfuil collection of 66 or Peter's columns.
