exactly the way it should have been. That's exactly how it's going with
these vans. And that is one reason why we love them so much. The enigma.
The puzzle. Which we will eventually, as a community, work out and then
sigh with relief. And if nothing is wrong with it, we wonder what is going
to break soon. And that's an other puzzle. It needs constant maintenance
and attention of some kind like a wife. We are married to them. We have a
love-hate relationship with them. Can't live without them.
