One thing almost everyone agrees on is that old stuff was simply built better.  Whether that's actually true or not warrants further study, but there's one thing we know for certain: it does not apply to cars.  Those old 50s cars are cool, but they're not exactly the finely tuned machines we have now.  You're lucky if one has a working air conditioner, and that's when it was new.  And speaking of things that don't work, a lot of modern journalists aren't terribly great at their jobs, and that's putting it politely.  They don't do any legwork and their spell check is apparently broken.  Jen has been doing the unheard of for 22 years by actually going places and doing investigative work, and now she has a book about it.  See?  Being competent pays off.
