C'mon guys!

The point of my original post was simply to provide a link for those
interested in alternative fuels and related things - which is  coming to
us and our Vanagons as surely as the sun rises. I have an optional
Vanagon carburetion/alternative fuel thing happening right now,  in part
as a consequence of stuff that has appeared on this list.  With this one
link, I expected any responses to be off list. Most were.

My delete key has the word spelled in big letters. If I don't want to be
bothered with a post,  I use it.

Lets move on.
