Subject:      public thanks to dean aukes!


Volks - I just wanted to give Dean Aukes a public pat on the
back for having the memory of an elephant.  He remembered my
post from several months back about needing a vanagon westy
table leg (metal-pole/pipe thing), found 2 with bases in a
yard near him, and sent them to me!  As I'd been looking here
for  long time without success, I was euphoric to get these!
Dean - just let me know whatever parts you my be looking for,
and I'll keep an eye peeled for them.  

This event made me think that it would not be a bad idea for
somone to have some sort of reference page, where we could
all enter our parts/tools wishes.  If someone is going "junking,"
they could keep an eye open for the stuff.  People would have to
be either diligent about updating the list when they got
the desired part, and/or the people going junkyarding should
probably check first with the lister to make sure the part is
still needed.  There could be a lot reciprocal kindness here.

Anyway, thanks a million Dean!  :)
