[ale] Edsel

[Scott McDonald]

When I was working in Anderson, SC last year, the office manager
bought an Edsel from somebody in Rome, GA off eBay.  She bought it
because it was made the year she was born,  she always wanted one
(they do look cool), and this one was still drivable.  I thought she
was nuts - but hey - I don't like to buy anything that doesn't run
Diesel or Linux (preferably both).

I have actually _seen_ an Edsel. There was one in Rome GA back around
1975-1977 or so. It was the station wagon model.

About that same time I got to ride in a 1930-earlyish Rolls Royce.
