Uhh, Gary, you are dead wrong my man.  Last year you bought a Bentley
manual from me specifically for Rabbit diesel, which is what you wanted as
I recall, and I threw in another one for free.   Haynes, I think.  I
thought I was doing you a favor.  Now they are "useless" manuals?  "Wrong"
manuals?  Why did you ask to buy them from me?   I did something to you "on
purpose?"  This is ridiculous.  What have you been smoking out there?

I have posted to this list countless times during the past year, and you
just now decide to slander my name.

Nice of you to show your "appreciation."

PS- And . . .
don't make me have to get VWfrank after you.  You will be sorry.
