I think I finally have time to properly address and thank you all for a great event. I am always pleased when you are happy with the proceedings and the finished product.

Ian, thanks for the lobster. It was my first whole Main type lobster and it was fantastic! In California the lobsters dont have claws.

Walter, thanks for trying to play along with me, and letting me play along with you (sort of). By the time my hands warmed up, I was pretty drunk Your jingle for the Church of Infinite Happiness was funny and cleaver.

Petey, thanks for saving Mark from the fire, twice. He has your parts that you left.

Mark, thanks for hosting. Again. As always, a great time, Your wife is a saint.

Mike and Dave.......well, you know.

The rest of you, you know who you are and how I feel

Would it be alright if Andrew came back?

Yes, we keep leaving Andrew out, he spent a lot of time working on my tranny (ouch!). Thanks Andrew.

Andrew surprised me as I didnt realize how much he picked up when helping me rebuild transmissions here at my house. We only have done a few, he tends to have to leave before they are done and I need to get them out so as not to jam up the customer.

However, he jumped right in at the clinic and was a great help and very knowledgeable. Since I didnt know how much he was capable of doing, I did not split the initial tuition with him. Now that I know, I have offered him a 50/50 for future clinics and I handed him a wad of cash on the way home. He was pleased as he was not expecting any of it. He is a good guy, well mannered, intelligent..... no idea why he hangs with me

Hope Doc gave everyone a diploma...

By the way, what transmission fluid are you recommending?

Ian Stott

No transmission fluid, only 80w90 GL5, cheap, non-synthetic gear oil that is changed about every 9kmi or yearly.
