Yau-Man - Agreed, BUT I worry about VW karma!  Me '60 Bug, back in '66
taught me that one NEVER criticizes one's VW within view or earshot of
said vehicle!  Yelling at, kicking or threatening ALWAYS results in some
disaster, MILES away from help.  My '62 Kombi, back in the mid-70's,
while I was in veterinary school, was MUCH more sensitive about such
things.


I've heard rumors about the idiosyncracies of Italian women, but I have
never, uh, known one!  I did know a Portugese woman, once, and I
consider VW vans very similar!  They respond best to non-critical
SUGGESTIONS!
