Now wait just a goll dang minute here!!!

This hear ain't Fridaay and I see a lot a jokin goin on at somebody elses
expense.
I am just real pleased that he offered a price right up front, all free and
clear and such; and you folks jus keep poking fun at him for trying to make
an almighty dollar.
You folks out thar in the Left Coast time zones are deminted (SF is closed
is it not?).
Stephen,

First off it is Vanagon related. It was a nice way to say something was amiss
concerning that posting. When you post on this List, you are posting
internationally -- including Ohio. We would me negligent if we didn't say anything
about certain conduct which would be frowned upon in many states and countries.

BTW, for your state rules (Ohio, right?) go to:

So unless Chris is donating the proceeds to the BenTnevolent Association of
Vanaholics, well you can figure out the rest. Besides, I'm sure the controversy
and resulting free publicity does not hurt Chris' efforts to sell his van.
It's just like Hollywood, man.

And on your other note, IIRC SF was only deminted on 5th and Mission. The
facility on appropriately named Mint St. should still be in operation -- I think.
