    What's wrong with OMS?

    I recently sent this email to OMS:

    Subject: New 32 pound wing
    Is this wing a "donut" wint or a "horseshoe" wing? IE, is the part at the bottom connected to form a continuous oval?
    Their reply, in its entirety:

    Which do you prefer?
    First, does anyone know the answer to this question? Second.... wtf?

    They make both kinds.
