What's the matter, Ron?  You been hitting the soma too hard?

In Aug '99 you posted about the price of gas
Oct '99 about a virus
Dec '99 you responded to "words to avoid" and described yourself as a
Euromutt
Jan '00 you posted about ICQ and AIM
Feb '00 you posted about using Character Map in windows
Mar '00 you replied to a legitimate post about a tape deck getting hot with,
"Been listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers?"
May '00 you replied to "what kind of list is this?????" with, "I can't
really imagine what your surprise is.  After all, the topics on this list
cover everything including the kitchen sink ;->  Or is that sink-ro?"
Sep '01 you posted "Plan for Afghanistan" (it was rather long, political,
and militant)
Jul '03 you replied to "Teenage drivers"
Dec '03 you posted "The Physics of Santa and his Reindeer"

I have to admit, though, I didn't see you posting anything concerning sports
cars until now.
