I'll be away for the holidays for a week or so - if I'm gone longer, I probably slid off a mountainside driving to the coast.
Some random thoughts:
It's interesting how many of us into 1st gens come from an engineering and/or military background. Perhaps it's the 'elegance in it's simplicity' design of both car and engine that draws us... or maybe ReXes are cool cars that appeal to intelligent people
Even through the minor flare ups lately, this remains one of the most active, informative, informal, and FRIENDLY forum I've ever encountered. Some of oyu I know face to face, and some just through emails, PMs, and phone convos but quite a few of you I consider friends, a title I'm pretty picky about using.
Thanks for all the support and advise, and I look forward to contributing more in the new year.
Happy holidays and godspeed.

Kind of ironic that Military types would be viewed as 'different' when, while I was in uniform, being called an 'individual' was an insult! *L*

Hey Manntis, YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE!
Hey Carl, didn't you read 357?
WE'RE FROM A LOONEY BIN!
I guess I'll go back to the "L-B" now, that's where I keep my '82 GS and my '66 Corsa convertible with the 140 HP engine. (That's 4 one barrel's on one engine for those of you that don't know!)

Hey Manntis, YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE!
So as a Corvair and an 1st gen guy, what does that make me?
Corvair?! Are you sure it doesn't have to do with being from a looney bin?
