Scott and Jake,

please dont offend each other about that. I suppose scott misunderstood the post as a for sale ad, while it was probably just meant as "hey, I have the opportunity to get some things from a junkcar thats the same as mine, what would i be smart in taking?" Paul Guzyks answer perfectly answered that. As to in why jake flamed you and not mike, i suppose there is a language issue, but mainly gmail, which jake is using, processed mikes reply about twenty minutes later then scotts. Now can we let the issue rest? You are both valuable contributors to the list.
