When I first went to SCCA drivers school, I had to have three stripes on my
car to indicate that a novice was driving.  Only after one finished the
requirements for a Regional License could these ``racing stripes'' be
removed.  Serious race cars rarely had much in the way of fancy body work
or paint.  It only slowed down the time to fix the car after a crash.

The cry has been that when war is declared, all opposition should
therefore be hushed.  A sentiment more unworthy of a free country could
hardly be propagated.  If the doctrine be admitted, rulers have only to
declare war and they are screened at once from scrutiny ...  In war,
then, as in peace, assert the freedom of speech and of the press.
Cling to this as the bulwark of all our rights and privileges.
