Sorry for my overly reactionary post on this list. To me, it just seemed to be getting a little uncivilized, and I got a bit fired up about it. I will try to keep it on the relevant side. But damn, it's not a car, it's a Volkswagen.

And please stop telling me how to drive, on this list!!! Yes, I use the delete key, I can comb through 250 messages in 15 minutes. That's not the problem... The problem is that this is a Vanagon list, we are here to share technical and similar Vanagon related stuff. But this is beyond silly! You guys are looking stupid to me. Go start a "Real Sports Car " list. Go start a "Road Rage" list. Go start a "Proper Way To Drive" list. Go and freakin' grow up!!!! It is common tongue-in-cheek knowledge that the only good driver on the road is one's self, and all others are either too-slow idiots or too-fast fools. One could surf the web for the rest of a lifetime on these subjects. And if those of you arguing on-list would please do so, to save this list from fracturing and becoming too full of caca to bother with. You heard me - keep it up, I'll off my Vanagons 2WD and Syncro, and my Scirocco, and go get a road-hoggin' gas-guzzlin' smog-belchin' Sportsmobile and never have to deal with this crap-ola no more!!
