My father knew a guy with a rotary powered car in the 70's, and my grandfather probably doesn't even know what a rotary is.

My father's first job after mechanic school or vocational was at the local mazda dealer. He happen to be trained by mazda engineers from japan when they were introducing the rx3 or rx4 engines.
