If that's how you want to play it, then fine - but where will the list
be in another decade? At this rate it will end up being the same 5
people rehashing the same politics and driving the same 35 year old

The thing is that Tom is going through a very rough time. I think he
got whacked a year or two ago, his wife is working for The O's gummint
motors now but without a job guarantee that they had become accustomed
to, and the future is probably looking very dicey at an older age. I

I agree, it's a pitty to lose Tom's technical knowledge on this list.
However if you're going to participate in an OT thread, then get all
huffy and quit when the discussion doesn't go the way you want, then I'd

However if you're going to participate in an OT thread, then get all
true. We try to keep things civil around here, and I never saw anything
get out of hand in the situation. Only people disagreeing with anothers

Mercedes maintenance to get people pissed. Throw in politics,
religion, sex, sports and whatever and you will see people dropping
like flies. Then what is the
that wasn't quite how it went though. hargrave jumped in by defending the
decision to eliminate the dealers and then told us about his hard times of
his UAW wife losing 2 dollars an hour.
when you play that kind of hockey, you have to know that you are going to be
mixing it up in a rougher way
