[UA] Beyond mechanomancy

[Dean Reilly]

Obviously, Mr. Scierri is subconsciously preparing for the arrival of a two-foot tall man.

1/3 scale *model* Ferrari 312PB. This one works. He made all of the 
parts himself. He made all of the molds from which he casted the parts 
himself. He taught himself how to make glass so that he could make the 
headlights. The engine. he explains, is like the Ferrari's 300cc flat 
12 engine with 24 valves. Only, of course, it's 100cc. Asked if the 
gearbox works, he says "Of course," and demonstrates shifting, pushing 
the clutch with his finger. It sounds just like a Ferrari, only 
higher-pitched, of course.

The odd thing is that he can't quite explain why he did it.
