I put seats from an 85  into my 81. I pretty certain that rails are rails.


Now......

If you are going to post this kind of political trash in the Vanagon list,
you are going to cause a lot of trouble in the group, and I guarantee that
much of it will come from me.

I do everything I can to avoid getting political here. I sometimes fail. I
sometimes catch myself, and other times, folks call me on it, but it does
not help people like me, when others feel that they can impress their
political views onto everyone else under the diguise of a "clever"
tagline. In other venues, its referred to as "chumming the waters"

You are posted a remark, quoted from a professional, political shark who
makes a living inciting and arguing, and  hoping no one will respond? I
find that highly offensive as it entices me to reply with my own POV, and
from there, it gets ugly real quick, thereby irritating everyone else.

Therefore, with about all the respect I can muster, as one who is easily
provoked and prefers not to be, yet still wants to read the VANAGON list,
please do not post political, partisan, flame inducing crap on display
here in this neighborhood.

Thank you. I am sure that is about as civil as I can get.
