I've heard a story about Burt Rutan having lunch with Roger Houghton
(Roger helped buld the Voyager aircraft many moons ago) in the McDonalds
in Mojave- Roger looked at the SUV's, campers, jet skis, and ATVs
zooming by on hwy 14, and asked, "Why do these people have all those
damn toys?" Burt replied, "They hate their jobs."
