...the less sure I am there's _anything_ worth sharing that I'm 100% positive on.
Still, I share my information, experiences and thoughts and get same from others - which has greatly helped my insight regarding these matters. I'd like to think every now and then I contributed something to others' projects, too...
Cars may be technical things, but actually their workings are far removed from being exact science. In the latter case everything would be in cast iron laws and there'd be no progress. Anyone who follows the automotive world will agree there's been _enormous_ progress even though we're still fighting the same physical laws. Not all of that 'progress' necessarily brings us closer to that driving experience we crave, and some of it stems indeed from the advent of better materials and such - but most of it comes from someone looking at things with a different view, discussing matters, trial and error, sharing experiences. That's how perfomance and DIY orientated mailing lists and this board work. The day you ask people to only step forward when they're knowing _exactly_ what their talking about the only postings you'll see are things I could just as well read from the factory manual. Where would progress be if people aren't allowed to venture into the unknown even in theory?
Happy Saabing,
Eric
