    Listened to it a bit more, and you're right. It's good.

    Thanks again for your help BA80

    • You guys should knack it off already.

      I love this list...it's like having twenty guys standing around ones garage while one is pondering the latest bike problem; a couple are looking the bike over and trying to help, a few are making random suggestions, one or two keep going back to the solution they know best, even if it seems remote, a couple are having a pissing contest about some arcane procedure, and several are just shooting the breeze about something else. Every thread is like a mini-rally.

      More grog and fresh wenches for my men!
