https://www.wsj.com/articles/saudi-women-dont-just-want-to-drive-they-want-400-horsepower-1531923787
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When officials at Ford Motor Co. heard that Ms. Nasief, who is known for having participated in the campaign for women’s right to drive, wanted a Mustang, the manufacturer offered to give her one. She asked for the powerful performance car in yellow and black, the colors of her local soccer team, Al-Ittihad, of which she is a die-hard fan. Since it was delivered July 9, she has been driving the Mustang almost nonstop. She zooms down Jeddah’s palm-lined avenues. often with the top down despite sweltering heat, giving rides to various groups of her 16 grandchildren. “I love this car because of its roar,” said Ms. Nasief. “Everybody is staring at me because I’m a woman in a sports car. But why not? We are even better drivers than the men, to be honest.” Ms. Nasief keeps one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the horn, blasting male drivers who fail to use turn signals or who talk on a cellphone while behind the wheel, both common sins on Saudi roads. “If I see them behave badly, I go ‘beep beep!’” she said. “We’ll teach them how to drive.”)

My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress that a) I did not make GS-12 (currently $81,071) until I was 25 in 1974, that I did not make GS-13 (currently $96,403) until I was 38 in 1986, and c) that I never made GS-14 (currently $113,920).)
