You breezed through tire school? Was that breeze caused by your snoring?

You said, "distorting the shape has exactly NOTHING to do with it...." That
means that you believe that when you have a fixed amount of a substance in a
container and reduce the volume of the container the pressure stays the
same. ARE YOU JOKING??? Have you never heard of an air compressor? Have
you never heard of an internal combustion engine? Have you never heard of
an air conditioner? Have you never heard of ...

Never mind. You're just making stuff up. You can't really believe this
crap you're spewing forth and you can't really be this stupid. You're just
messing with me.
