Times 3 BMWs, and besides the planned coolant change every 2 years, there
are the inevitable repairs (the average age of my 3 Bimmers is older than
the average age of your 2) that require draining all or part of the cooling
system.  Not to mention giving some to people at club events when their
cooling system springs a leak or they just need to top off, and no one else
has any and they're faced with having to use - GASP! - regular WATER!  Oh,
the humanity.  So I go through, oh, say 3 gallons of the stuff in a bad
year, and pretty soon it all starts to add up and next thing you know I've
saved $15 or $20!  It's almost like real money.

But actually, I was originally hoping that I would find some G05 at a store
where I already shop, cutting out an extra trip and the "trouble" to which
I'm going.  So far no luck on that, but now it has become a quest, an
obsession, a NEED to find the stuff and feel like I've actually succeeded
at something.

I'm not surprised - how long have I known you? :-)

LOL! OK, fair enough.

Of my 2 BMWs, only one uses coolant, and the only reason I happen to have
a gallon of the BMW stuff on hand was from replacing the thermo housing
gasket, and that's what's always been in it.

Yeah, I've frustrated myself (and drunk a lot of alcohol :-)) over that
same mind-set. I'd like to think I'm smarter now.....

> Hey, it won't be the first time.   :^)

After a while it either becomes so painful you stop, or you become numb to
it and don't care :-)

Good luck on your quest.

LEAD FOOTERS, BEWARE -- HIGHWAY PATROL IS CRACKING DOWN ON SOUTH BAY
SPEEDERS
HIGHWAY PATROL IS CRACKING DOWN ON SOUTH BAY LEAD FOOTERS
By Gary Richards
Mercury News

The California Highway Patrol is cracking down on speeders at a pace never
seen before in the South Bay, issuing nearly 1,400 tickets last month. At
that rate, the CHP would quadruple the number of tickets issued last year.

A newly created five-trooper team is swarming a stretch of road every
weekday, sometimes nabbing speeders twice on the same trip, and this isn't
just some temporary tactic.

The goal is to make the South Bay an area where flying down a freeway at 80
to 90 mph is not tolerated. Despite severe staffing shortages, CHP
commanders in San Jose are determined to change a disturbing fact: Speeding
is the main cause of two out of three highway deaths in the state.

``What we have out there is in essence a free-for-all,'' Lt. Spencer Boyce,
one of the CHP bosses behind the change in strategy, said. ``People figure
if the speed limit is 65, then they can do 85. The reality is that speed
kills. It's that simple, and we want to change that.''

The early returns are impressive. The new unit issued 1,744 tickets in
January -- 1,369 for speeding with the remainder mainly going to solo
drivers cheating in the carpool lane or not wearing seat belts. The group is
on pace to issue more than 16,000 speeding tickets this year. Last year, the
entire San Jose division gave out 4,155 tickets for excessive speed.

Tuesday, Lisa Basili was one of the unlucky ones. Officer Jason Morton
clocked her at 83 mph on southbound Interstate 680 near Capitol Avenue.

``God, don't write me a ticket,'' pleaded Basili, who was returning to
college in Monterey in her 1994 Buick with 125,000 miles on it. ``I'm sorry.
I won't do it again. Just give me a warning. I'm driving a Buick. Please.''

No mercy, for her or anyone else, on this day.

Morton and four others no longer are assigned to patrol a particular highway
by themselves. Instead, they are teamed up to saturate one South Bay freeway
or expressway each weekday as part of the new crew, headed by Sgt. Bob
Buckles.

They sometimes work together, one officer radioing another farther down the
highway with four on motorcycles and one in a patrol car. Other times they
stay on the same highway, but go after scofflaws separately. Some motorists
see a trooper on the shoulder busy writing a ticket and zoom off, thinking
the officer is too busy and they'll never see another for miles, a
reasonable assumption in the past.

Surprise. ``We've given a person a ticket and three minutes later they are
stopped again,'' officer Lance Hedrick said. ``They don't think there's
going to be more than one of us out here. Certainly not five of us.''

Most crackdowns in the past have needed special funding or overtime pay.
When that money ran out, enforcement often eased or stopped.

But not this crackdown. Officers' main duty is looking for speeders. No
accidents to worry about, road rage incidents to deal with or other duties
that often tie up a traffic officer.

Each day Sgt. Buckles picks a road to target. Highway 101 on Monday,
Interstate 680 on Tuesday. Highway 85 on Wednesday. A different road today.
Sometimes in the morning, sometimes late afternoon. Keep 'em guessing.

``It is a target rich environment,'' said Lt. Boyce. ``It's not like we have
to wait 30 minutes to get somebody speeding.''

Try maybe three seconds. Tuesday around lunchtime, Morton pulled his black
and white cruiser into the median on I-680 before Landess Avenue and tracked
northbound traffic with his Lidar unit, which shoots a narrow laser beam at
its target and can accurately pick out a speeder more than a half mile away.

``This won't be long,'' he told the Mercury News reporter.

Within four seconds, he jumped back in, hitting the accelerator hard to
catch up to a gray Honda Accord flying by at 80 mph. It was Stacey Nixon's
unlucky day.

The 37-year-old San Jose woman grumbled about her fate.

``I think this is very unfair,'' she said, her tiny pooch Sammy wagging his
tail in the back seat. ``There are so many other terrible things they can
get you for. I don't think speeding is that big a problem. People go a lot
faster.''

Oh my, do they. Up next, Mike Nguyen, 38, of San Jose who was late for work
at a Pleasanton restaurant. Speed: 86 mph.

Want faster? Try Nicole Young of San Jose -- 90 mph near Jacklin Road.
That's a minimum fine of $350.

``People get hurt when they drive too fast,'' she said with a sigh. ``Well,
90 is pretty fast. I don't think I was driving unsafely, but it's a healthy
reminder. I'm guilty.''

Rhianna Vicini, 84 mph. Sung So, 80 mph. The five cops wrote 116 tickets,
the highest number of any day so far in the new crackdown.

Allen Hauptman of San Jose was tickled to see speeders and carpool cheaters
being ticketed on San Tomas Expressway recently.

``What pleases me the most is that the enforcement effort isn't just a one
or two patrol-person effort,'' he wrote in an e-mail. ``Nope. These
scofflaws are being pounced upon by a team of four to six motorcycle
officers.''

Ditto, said Pamela Yanne of Saratoga after the CHP flooded Highway 85
between Almaden Expressway and Union Avenue two weeks ago.

The CHP crew, she said, made drivers behave better, and the commute was ``a
welcome sight to the usual stop-and-go, watching cheaters dart in and out of
the carpool lane and speeders weaving through traffic.''

For years, motorists have lamented the absence of heavy patrols on state
highways and expressways, for good reasons. The CHP's total of 66 patrol
officers in its San Jose branch is down from 85 three years ago and from 119
in 1969. Factor in those assigned for special duties from homeland security
to organized crime units, and there are 1,000 fewer cops cruising state
freeways than in 1970.

Ten new cadets may head to the South Bay later this year, but local
commanders said they can't wait for them.

``We need to be proactive,'' Boyce said. ``We can't just react to what is
going on.''

The San Jose division is the first to employ the special unit. Don't be
surprised if more follow suit, said CHP spokesman Mike Wright.

``You give an officer no beat accountability and tell them to go after
speeders,'' Wright said, ``and it's like putting them in a candy store.''

Yes, speed is the main cause of highway deaths.  That's an absolute truth;
no argument with that.

But, hey, speed is the main cause of AIRPLANE deaths too.  As in, the plane
was going too fast when it hit the ground.  :-)

A car crash occurs because a car hit something.  Let's assume that no one
INTENDS to actually HIT anything.  So a driver error results in the
inability to slow or stop in time to avoid contact.  So, to that extent,
SPEED *IS* the "main cause."  But that's true even if I'm driving 55 mph,
and don't notice traffic backed-up, and rear-end the car in front.  When
performing the accident write-up, the office will note that speed is a
factor - well, duh, I was going too fast to stop in time - though I could
have avoid it had I been paying attention.

Just another example of slanted thinking on the part of safety nazis and
ill-informed reporters who just regurgitate press releases.

There have been several young people killed in the South Bay in the
past year who were not aware of how much more skill you need to
drive safely at 80-110 than you do at 50-80.

I cringe whenever I see a teenager/young adult go flying by me in
a modded ricer at 100+ (and, if you drive I-280 at off-peak times,
it is fairly common to be passed by someone cruising at that speed).

If the odds were they would only kill themselves and those in the car
with them, then I would say they are simply cleansing the gene pool,
but, it is likely they will take out some innocent driver or pedestrian
as well.  :-(

I think the point is that "speed kills" and "speed is the main cause of
death" rather than "speed is the main cause of accidents" - two
obviously very different statements. But the reality is, as stated
below, that speed is involved whether you are speeding or not. You run
into something at 40mph and come to an instant stop, and you're not
wearing a seatbelt - you're probably dead. If you were going 10mph you
have a bump on your forehead. At 40mph you weren't speeding, but speed
still killed you.

In fact, IIRC, the number of accidents (not deaths) per mile driven went
down when the speed limits went up from 55mph. Of course, might have
been a bunch of fudge...
