I think I only sent this to Jim previously, If not then then I mean it
double!
I know my post are not as good or often as many, but I am here, and believe
in these old school list. Next best thing is forums, but I digress for not
wanting to go into slippery slopes.
I will be here until we close or sell the vanagon (doubtful)
Thanks,
T.
