RE:  "Geez, what are you guys all sniping at Larry for?  He's having problems,asks for help, and you read him the riot act about how he's wasted his money on his vehicle or made dumb technical decisions?  Come on, guys, you're too old to be saying "I told you so," even if you are sure you are right.  That simply is not a gracious way to behave."

 Feel free to flame me and/or correct me if I am wrong, but I do not recall Larry asking for financial assistance. His initial report was that Roadhaus was wounded and he might have to end his journey early. List members started offering money well before Larry ever published his Paypal account. People offering to help before those in need ask is the way it should be.

By the way, I am changing our vans transmission this weekend so if anyone wants to help.......
