[SEL] Odd, Strange, and Curious

[Dave Rotigel]

I noticed that some of the smaller engines at Coolspring were running. If 
an engine isn't running (or is incapable of running) it would seem a BIT of 
an OVERSTATEMENT to say that it is "X", "Y", or "Z" HP. One might correctly 
indicate the weight of the cast iron--but to indicate HP is a figment of an 
over active imagination!
