Thanks Ray, you're a true gentleman!

I'm happy to preserve these gems of history for posterity. I was just starting high school when this issue came out so I never read it until now. But I was at least old enough to experience how sensational the Fb was when it was new.

So you just hit the big 4-0 then I would assume. Its all downhill from there.

On here, age doesn't matter, its whats between the ears that counts.

Yeah, I appear to be the same age as j9fd3s and know nearly as much about rotaries as he does. Well, I know more about Nikkis and he knows more about factory EFI. Same difference. I also lived in CA when I first started school. However I was here in WA when Mt St Helens blew up. That was interesting. I actually heard it the morning it popped. Sounded like a very big M80 way off in the distance. Of course I was only like 4 or 5 years old and anything loud sounded like fireworks to me.
