Yeah, I think he has some stomach problems that resulted in a bleed. Yorkville was kind of a hippie hangout back then. Today it's all upmarket and trendy cafes and shops. I still go there once in a while to hangout with friends, have a coffee and buy some cigars. They have a great cigar shop there.

He didn't come into the shop much, the boss would often take stuff he was interested in over to his place. he would come in from time to time. He had a real think for vintage Martin accountics. :-) Bruce Coburn was a regular visitor too. He was a very cool guy. He once bought a custom flying V guitar I wanted, so I ended up buying another flying V off a roadie with the Toronto based band called Triumph. As with so many of those guys, when they would sit and play for you, their talent was so much greater than anything you would hear on their recordings.

I haven't known many BMW owners, but three I can think of are my uncle (has been restoring some really small old one for a long time now).

Re: [MBZ] for the AZ-ers on the list
i've never experienced higher than 107. it was a dry heat too. it was very unpleasant, but still no more so than 90 in georgia. the coldest i ever experienced was -17F, also in a humid climate. i had to get the car started and probably spent about 15 minutes working outside in that weather. i don't get how people live in 40 below. 60 is a good temperature. winter here is perhaps my favorite season. no bugs, but still gets warm enough during the day On 7/1/07, E M [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yeah, but it's a dry heat. :-) Ed On 01/07/07, Robert Rentfro [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've seen...ahhher.no sane human lives here, It's too hot. 115 degrees on my patio today.

[MBZ] Moly Lube Tranny Fluid
When I got the seller of my 190D to come address some of the issues (fortunately, he left his cel phone in my car) he brought with him a quart of Moly Lube tranny fluid. The bottle says it's mineral based. And it says that it meets MB specs, though these specs have numbers after them that I do not understand. Is this stuff good to mix in with regular old ATF? Yes, I know I should drain and replace with Mobil 1, but in the meantime...

Where there ain't no ice! Nope. But I know of the ice roads and the drivers that haul freight. It's rather ironic that the _winter_ is the only suitable time to haul freight. In most places the transportation work is done when the weather is fairest - up there they work only when the weather is the coldest!
