Yep, I know I am jaded. I look outside and I see three of these things. I
see a couple more down the street, and at least 5 or 6 everyday I go to
work, or the lumber yard, or to see my kids, or whatnot...
I understand that in Kapskolutia Wisconsin, a vanagon siting might be a big
deal. It might make your week..... but....

But trust me, they DON'T belong to the list. Well, the probability that they
don't belong to the list is not a negative number, but trust me, they
probably don't belong to the list.

Twice a week now, I need to wipe out my hotmail account. All that valuable
information, down the tubes. All the important questions about tires. All
the fighting, all the nastyness. All the discussions about what happens if
you rearend a semi at 70MPH in your van. It all gets deleted twice a week
because you all fill up my hotmail account... twice a week.

Some common curtesy perhaps...
1.) Is what you say totally important to the discussion?
2.) Did you read the entire thread to see if what you want to express has
already been discussed?
3.) Didja even try the archives before asking a question? i.e. keywords
tires, passenger, Firestone... etc.
4.) Answering flamebait makes you feel better.... and fills up the list
bigtime... and no one wants to read it anyway. Is it necessary to do this?
5.) Answering flamebait four days later... what's with that?

Sorry to help fill your inbox with this. But I suspect half the list has me
shooting into the trashbin automatically anyway.

Just think about it.
