You may have read one of his articles and never picked up on his name.
If you've read a mainstream car magazine in the past 20 years there is a good chance you've come across something by him or inspired by him.

Towards the end of his career at C&D, I found him a little annoying. Too much political nonsense worked its way into his articles. Wasn't even high quality political nonsense. Just sounded like old man rants after he read some stupid email forward.
