We wondered who he was, somebody mentioned his first name, somebody else mentioned a screen name he uses, I put the first name together with the apparent surname from the screen name and found the name was published in a phone directory in StLou, that must have been the personal info that bothered him, IOW his full name. I suspect that somebody who knew him gave him the address of the archive and suggested he read it because he and his club were mentioned here. Mitch.

Yea, Mitch, I read all that. I was just wondering what Kleb said to him to get that you guys don't pull any punches comment. Not angry, just curious. Don

Re: [MBZ] [Fwd: Re: Club 123D]
vince needs to sign onto the stiplin list and we can then bash away about what is the proper oil he needs to endorse, which tires are best fitted to the w123, why the fuses are never changed regularly in that model, and the virtues of turbo over non turbo models. Along with California versions v. other 48 types of car. Maybe even delve into which is better stick or auto and sedan or wagon On Tuesday, December 13, 2005, at 06:57 AM, Kaleb C.
