Don't get me started on my collection of "physicist versus engineer" jokes. :-) :::: A summer vacationer stopped past the other day and said, "If I could find a farm like this, which just runs itself, I'd be tempted to buy." I had to tell him to resist the temptation if that was the awy he felt. No farm runs itself, even though it may seem to in midsummer... But the land doesn't "just run itself." If we left it to itself, the pastures would be overrun by birch and sumac, the fences would rot and rust, and we would soon be living in a tumble-down house crowded by a thicket. -- Hal Borland :::: Jan Steinman, EcoReality Co-op :::: _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
