[MBZ] Top Down in December.
Since it was 78°F yesterday, it was the first drive home with the top down day. Very nice. The last drop top I had was a '99 Mustang. There is no comparison between the CLK and the Mustang. No manual latches, no boot, no squeaks and creaks, far less wind in the people space. Ultra bueno.

He did this type of gun thing from time to time. He would drive a rat patrol jeep after a car that was rigged to motor in a tight circle. The objective was to chase and shoot the car until it was killed/stopped. Dragonman had a front page writeup in WSJ in early '90's - interesting guy from NYC that moved to CSpgs. FBI would consult him. He died several years ago. He had a large gun shop out there in the moose pasture east of town. We were further east and then south at Drennan. Interesting. I didn't see the article about him (I didn't see any WSJ papers). Best water in the world was from 100 ft deep well in Black Squirrel alluvium. We had a 523 ft deep well four miles south of Calhan.

Denninger's mention of Stevia was interesting, as I'd never heard of it before. 1/4lb of powdered herb is as sweet as 60lb of sucrose, but has potential for bitter licorice aftertaste? There have been allegations of health concerns, but nothing to compare to saccharine or cyclamate. Advocates claim the allegations are fabricated by the artificial sweetener industry.

Re: [MBZ] 1995 E320 no parking lights on Left
I'm not familiar with this model, but in other MBs I have either removed or replaced the headlight switch in it hasn't been a difficult job. You probably have to remove the bolster under the dash to get to it, pull the knob off, remove the nut on the shaft that holds it in place, and disconnect the harness. Be sure to disconnect the battery for this. There is B+ present at the switch 100% of the time.

Re: [MBZ] Fwd: FYI - sensible Oz gun laws
A coupla years ago a kid drove a Toada into a big oak tree up the road. The paper had some pics up for an hour or two, and it looked survivable -- air bags went off, the car was not that badly smashed. But I was told by my buddy the fire commissioner (trucks responded) that he drove straight into it, no seatbelt, high speed, to kill himself. Was sad, he was like 19. I think there are quite a few like that, you can sorta read between the lines of reports on crashes. --R On 12/18/13 6:11 PM, Gary Hurst wrote: i think jumpers are popular. also popular are overdosers and those who hang themselves. there might be more but that is what i come up with offhand if no gun is available On Wed, Dec 18, 2013 at 6:00 PM, Andrew Strasfogel astrasfo...@gmail.comwrote: Like how?

How many of the other 10K are justifiable homicides? That would include self defense and justifiable shootings by law enforcement or civilian. Including those numbers in the 10K would not give an accurate picture of the social value vs. the social cost of firearms. The removal from society of someone killed in justifiable self defense or other justifiable homicide has not only saved the life of the shooter, but potentially saved some other lives in the future that could have been put at risk by the deceased.

Re: [MBZ] Fwd: FYI - sensible Oz gun laws
It might help, but the greatest positive value of firearms is the prevention of death or injury when nobody is actually killed or injured. It's very difficult to quantify things that don't happen. Data I've seen indicates that guns prevent crimes between 1 and 5 times as often as they are used to commit crimes. The recent mall murder in NJ (or daily murders in any Mexican border town) show, yet again, that criminals can always obtain firearms, regardless of laws.

Here's a breakdown, somewhat dated (2001). I think the fireatm rate is now down to 50%. Rate Per Number 100,000 % of Total Firearms..16,8695.9.55.1 All Other Methods.13,7534.8.49.9 Hanging or Suffocation.6,1982.2.20.2 Poisoning..5,1911.8.17.0 Falls6510.2..2.1 Cutting / Piercing..4580.2..1.5 Drowning.3390.1..1.1 Fire.1470.1..0.5 Two USAF officers I worked with committed suicide. One hanged himself and the other stabbed himself. Shooting may be the most common method, but certainly not the only way.
