Shhhhuuuush! Joel,

You are going to let the cat out of the bag on that alternative engine
replacement I have planned out for the  88 GL I got from you. Being a
potter, I already have the new pots for the task made up and in process.
I'll be using recycled vinegar from the vats at the Whitfield Pickle
Company - Home of the Pickle Packin' Mama's - (lots of women with kids
work there) The vinegar from the vats has greater energy potential
because of release from the cucumbers of intestinal gas producing
energy, once the energy transfer is complete the cucs are pickles, and
as pickles no longer give one gas. And with that energy from the cucs
absorbed into the vinegars in chemical reaction, the vinegar has greater
energy potential than ordinary vinegar, and thus greater energy
transfers for the purpose of generating electricity for powering the van
with the new pottery jug/vinegar powered engine.

So don't let the word get out on the details just yet.
