He also had the audacity to say that the Triple at Kempton Park was like a "big car engine".  I was like "oh deaarrrrrr".

Uh oh.... the grammer coppers are out and about!!!  

Keep in mind that science teacher in grade/high schools, were wash outs in the science world, or were too lazy.  So the fact that their english is lousy....   this is a surprise?   I should think that they seem to be an ignorant boob is a bit more of a concern!!!
