As I drove home today I had a 190E coming the other way on the 2-way highway
I travel. The thought occurred to me: The other types of vehicles that I
have been into in my life have been sort of specialized, and as such, when
you happen upon another one, you give a nod or a quick friendly gesture (as
in the Mopar "thumbs-up", or the Harley (or really any motorbike) nod or
wave).

As our Mercedes' flew past eachother, I felt the urge to give some sort of
signal, so I just nodded slightly. Eh, maybe Merz isn't rare enough to do
that. Maybe I should reserve it for 123s.

I know that when I pass another classic 900 Saab when driving mine, I
sometimes get an acknowledgement.

I think I just may be an entirely too friendly person.

Come to think of it, I know that bus drivers wave at eachother. What about
semi-truck drivers? Probably too many of them on the road to do that.
