Sad. We've had pneumatic tires for 125 years and still get punctures.

I never read more sycophantic ****

By the way, I know a guy called Van Allen who says you didn't put a man
on the moon, and not only that, anybody who says they did is a liar.

technology, it doesn't look like you ever will and anybody who says you
did is a liar.

Punctures are NASA's fault (probably due to mixing up metric and
