Re: [MBZ] Go Vote Tomorrow - How does it work
Primaries vary by state. Most places I lived require you to declare a party when you register to vote, then you can only vote in that party's primary. There are exceptions; like in FL everyone can vote in a primary when only one party has candidates. Caucuses are a whole different deal. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Merle Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2008 01:33 To: Mercedes Discussion List Subject: Re: [MBZ] Go Vote Tomorrow - How does it work As an outsider residing in South Africa I battle to understand the US voting system - Can any registered voter take part in the Democratic or Rep run-off elections or must you be a party member?

Re: [MBZ] Go Vote Tomorrow - How does it work
This is handled state by state. In Alabama, I can vote for anyone I want in the election primary. In other some states you must register to a party when you register & then you can only vote in that party's primary. But you can still vote for whomever you want in the general election. In no case do you actually have to be a party member. When I actually go to the polls tomorrow, I'll be asked if I need a Democrat or Republican ballot. In case anyone's wondering, I will draw a Republican ballot. I'm no happier with the current president than most of my friends but our current foreign policy failures are no excuse to vote a Socialist with a GOD complex into office (sorry, couldn't resist).

Re: [MBZ] why america is finished NOW SEARS (was: pizza, not mercedes)
I used to buy made America Levi jeans for $75 a pair here in Canada. I'd buy a few pair at a time, and buy more when they wore out. Went the last time, bought two pair, paid $55 each. Got home, was as if I bought two different sizes. Read the label, made in Mexico. Took one pair back once for an exchange, and the other pair twice, due to defects in workmanship. Call me fussy, but I kinda like both legs the same length and the buttons to line up with the button holes. They cost $20 less per pair than the American made versions, and I guess they stayed in business but they're the last pair of Levi's I'll ever buy. Ed 300E.

Re: [MBZ] why america is finished NOW SEARS (was: pizza, not mercedes)
Just because something is made in China does not mean it's cheap and there is a huge difference in quality between Harbor Freight and Sears "made in China" tools. And there is more to "made in wherever" than most who complain will ever be willing to understand. I "grew up" in telecomm manufacturing as a test, process and quality Engineer and even back in the 70's, we would out source manufacturing to other countries. Most of these assemblies and products were too costly, dirty or dangerous to be manufactured here in the States. And the same process is still happening today. We hear of manufacturing & goods moving off shore. But has anyone taken the trouble to look at what is really moving to China? It's all of the low cost, labor intensive manufacturing jobs that no-one wants to do here. I remember when the last Lee plant in Tennessee moved - my sister in-law worked there for 12 years, until they closed. She worked 12 hours / day, 6 days / week at a base pay of $8.00 / hour. Also, she had no fingernails left from handling the blue jean material all day long. Neither did the co-workers I met. Lee moved, not to save money, but to stay in business. Market pressures kept their selling price down, they could not afford to pay higher wages and they could not attract enough workers to stay in production in Tennessee. Take a hard look at the other extreme - higher tech manufacturing and you'll find that jobs are growing in this country.

Re: [MBZ] 600 SWB vacuum diagram?
I just had a look at a buyers guild, and it lists total production of all 600s at 2,677. I've seen different numbers quoted in different sources, so not sure, but I would imagine a large number of those produced have been kept running. I'm not sure if they were truly built to order only, or if some dealers ordered them up. I've read articles saying the current SLR and Maybach are to customer order only too, and yet I've seen both on the floor of my local dealer. Wonder if a few dealers in certain areas, felt they knew their customers well enough that if they ordered one up and put it on the floor, they knew it would move. I seem to recall reading somewhere, that they were held in stock in very limited numbers, but near the end of product, you had to order them and put a down payment before they would even start building one. I wonder what the future for the current Maybach is? I read sales arent' what they thought they would be, and a face lift is due soon. I've always like the idea of the Maybach, but unlike the 600, just too many parts from the bins to justify the price. I hope the face lift takes a few hints from the current S class. Would be cool too if they went back to using more hydraulics.

Re: [MBZ] 600 SWB vacuum diagram?
I thought 1978 -- sales in the US stopped in 1972 as Benz didn't see any point in doing the emissions certification for later sale on the M100 (it would probably have required fitting D-Jet or worse, K-Jet) and the numbers sold simply didn't justify the cost, even with the 300 SEL 6.3 tossed in. Lots of them ended up in the Middle East before production ceased -- no emissions controls there then. There was a 6.9L 450SEL sold for a while with K-jet, but I don't know if that was the M100 or not. I think I saw some production numbers somewhere a few years ago indicating that something like 12,000 600's in various sizes were produced, and 6000 or so W109's with the M100, giving a production run over 15 years of 18,000 total -- less than 2000 vehicles a year.

I meant that the vacuum system should be similar to a 1963 era Benz, not that anything else was. The 600 Grand was essentially a custom order car, just like the Adenauer it replaced. Most parts are unique, not found in any other Benz ever made, and no very long out of production, so the are custom fabrication if you need one (as in someone has to retrieve the molds and cast you a new water pump if you cannot repair the one you have).

Re: [MBZ] another addition
I believe Oklahoma has a bit different mindset on self- and property protection than does Maine, more like Texas I would suppose. I am sure you are compliant with that mindset and take advantage fully of it. You might also want to take out a restraining order (not that it will have any effect) so that you have some justification for any consequences of a violation of it. That car idea wasn't bad either. --R Kaleb C. Striplin wrote: > They are doing fine, getting adjusted pretty well. Im not sure if I > mentioned it but the murder was granted bail of 100K.

Re: [MBZ] OT why america is finished NOW SEARS
I am afraid that the underlying problem is that recent generations of Americans think they are too good for jobs that are hard, dirty, or don't pay well ... even if better jobs are not available or they lack required skills or education. There are plenty of jobs as shown by the MILLIONS of "undocumented workers" (makes as much sense as unlicensed pharmacists) who live and work here while sending cash back home. Yep. The illegals are just filling the void. My nephews and nieces think this way. Personally, if I didn't have a job and needed one to live, I would do just about anything to make ends meet. There are plenty of jobs for those who WANT to work.

I agree that is the conventional wisdom, and you are probably right, BUT, there is a lot of anti-McCain sentiment out there that could make all the difference. If the ultra -conservatives would quit wasting their votes on Huckabee, then Romney would overwhelmingly win the nomination. I am not an anti-Mccain voter, I just think Romney has a better chance of beating Obama. Donald H.

Romney's is a more centrist kind of socialism, more like the Brits or the French, but the result is the same. It looks like Billary vs McLame in the final, which is really no choice at all inside the one party system.

Pulling the pan, draining and refilling the trans and TC, and replacing the gasket fixed a similar problem with my 82 300SD's trans--it would sometimes not shift out of third. Getting a trans flush made no difference. The filter needed to be replaced. Might try that, if disconnecting the kickdown switch doesn't help. Does sound electrical, too, if shutting off, operating the kickdown, and restarting fixes it. Check to see that kickdown switch is returning easily, and no carpet, crud, etc are preventing it from returning. THen I'd take the switch out and bench test it. Also make sure that no moisture is in switch.

I think all elections are toss-ups now. The electorate is slowly figuring out that the Rs are no more conservative than the Ds are green. I'm getting tired of voting in a no-choice, one party system.

That's a pretty consistent record. I don't see Oregon as comparable to Washington at all---the latter has a much larger, more diverse population.

Brady was saying Plax had nothing to do with holding him to 17 points unless Plax was switching to defense. When the Giants' offense spent ten minutes on their first drive, I knew why Plax thought it was going to be a low scoring game, and it was the Giants' offense that helped do it.

[MBZ] interior light problem
A minor issue with my 300D, but annoying: the front interior light does not come on when I open the front door. It works if I move the little roller switch to the "on" position, and the door switches work because the headlight alarm sounds if I open the door with the headlights on. Dirty contacts in the dome light? Does it just pop out by prying around the edges? I don't want to break it.

[MBZ] 1985 300CD intermittently sticking transmission issue
Group, Her 1985 300CD intermittently won't progress past first gear unless we stop the car, turn it off, and press the throttle to the floor. When we re-start the car, it upshifts normally. I installed a new kick down switch a few months ago, which reduced the frequency but did not end this glitch. Could the transmission be on its last legs or is there an external [cheap] adjustment that can be made? The car still has its original, well-maintained transmission with approximately 210 K miles. It does NOT SLIP between gears, just occasionally STICKS in first (more often than not when it's cold, first thing in the AM). Any suggestions or theories greatly appreciated!

Same here---Oregon's primary isn't for a couple of months, and no national candidate ever bothers campaigning here anyway, since the state always votes Democrat.
