Am I the only one that hopes to avoid a lengthy gun flame war on this list? I am just as guilty as some, and maybe more so, of posting messages with little or even no Vanagon content, but posts about politics, religion, Gay & Lesbian rights, and guns usually spiral out of control. Feelings run high on those subjects. I, for one, would wish that this topic be taken offline. -- Mike "Rocket J Squirrel" Elliott 71 Type 2: the Wonderbus 84 Westfalia: Mellow Yellow ("The Electrical Banana") 74 Utility Trailer.
