You belong to the austere generation of humanists who still
insist on wanting to understand the world around them. This
demand has become absurd. Leave everything to habit and your
discomfort will disappear. Consider do you think you know how
the telephone and television work. and yet you use them
everday. And with the exception of a few learned men how many
know how their hearts and kidneys work?

There should be a *.car group somewhere for car related things (which not have to deal with Z80 or 6502 CPUs -). F'up2 poster (kill-filing this subject). -- Andreas
