Good god, where is spell check and grammar check when you can't delete your errors!!

Note to myself: no BBS postings before noon, before a second cup of coffee or when in a rush. Rick - this took all of 40 minutes with a little cut and paste.

Mati, Canada,
Your car must be running great and you have nothing better to do. I am so impressed, that after reading your post, that I do have a life. Maybe you should restore another TR just to give you something to do or just come work on mine because you have way too much time on your hands. Just kidding have a great holiday. I am going to England for the Holidays. Any body need anything?

This must be catching - Santa arrived by Goose power last night - quite a task towing a sleigh loaded w/ TR parts.
