I'm not the only one, but having seen how Usenet was long before the spammers arrived, it's hard to let them get away with defiling that which was once pure ;) > Brother Grunff has the final say if a final say is available on any given > technical aspect Yup. Lots of us know alot about a lot of things, but he's got the current line pretty much completely understood. I'll put my 2-stroke and V4 familiarity up against pretty much anyone, but MH has me beat on V4, I'm sure. Laura is probably the best moderating factor I know, being practical and helpful. Doesn't matter, not like it's a competition, but it's fun to know an answer, ya know? Most people with problems like getting the answers they ask for. > - I tend to drone on and on - but I like to think it's > usually better motoring reading reading than the sunday fishwrap.
