      • Wilkes: How's it handling? Madison: Still a little jittery. Better than last month. Wilkes: I don't see any mechanical problems. Think the only thing jittery is behind the wheel! Edit
      • Wilkes: (about Madison) If he could drive half as good as he can bitch, we'd be fine. Edit
      • Wilkes: The city council may scrap the project, because of one minor design flaw – my car needs a driver. Some egocentric musclehead with quick reflexes to make my life miserable and my car run. Edit
