I'm sure that you do r-e-c-e-i-v-e the weather before he does.  At least he
talks about it AFTER talking about something that does or could pertain to
our vehicles.

Once again, not me!  You see, when you get an e-mail that has the little
chevrons beside the lines, it means that it comes from someone else.  Real
simple.  Since my post had the little chevrons, I was snipping from someone
else (good job, Chris).  Again, simple!

I didn't K-N-O-W we were either (well, maybe some of us who don't want
people to think we're ignorant try to be).  That's why we don't mind if
someone politely rambles and, as a group (with the exception of you... and
me, but only to you), why we send personal messages to someone if we have a
problem with them or something they have said.  Once again, my point is
that if you have a problem with Tom Mandera and what you consider to be
wasted bandwidth and general rambling, take it up with him personally,
don't bother us with with YOUR wasted bandwidth complaining PUBLICLY about
his posts.  And, on top of that, you waste more bandwidth not only by
complaining but by reposting what Tom said, thus wasting even more
bandwidth!

To Richard and the group:

Don't worry, I'm through with this.  No more wasted bandwidth (at least on
the list).  Anything else I have to say will be in private;  I'm going to
take my own advice from here on out!  Plus, we all know that Tom can take
care of himself.  Anybody who thinks I've been a bad boy or that I'm just
flat wrong can e-mail me privately.

p.s.- Anybody know where there are any wrecked 800s in the southeast
(obligatory Scout remark)?
