Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

LOL My Volvo 245 is kinda like that -- except it's not user error. There's a switch that detects if the lever is in park or neutral (like a neutral safety switch, except it's at the lever itself) and that likes to malfunction. Fortunately, I've dealt with it before and know how to fix it on the road and get running again.

At least modern cars no longer need to have their points adjusted, distributor caps that fuck up, etc... Most don't even have carbs anymore.

Yeah, cars are a lot easier and more reliable.

I was just shocked that it would even turn over when not in park.

Made me happy when it fired up and ran as usual that is for sure!

LOL Of course it made you happy when it started! I think anyone would be happy in that situation!

Speaking of happy, I'm being recognized for my Linux skill and commitments to help people. I've been asked to moderate the forum at linux.org. I have accepted the position - with the agreement that I can resign at any time and still be welcome there.

Congratulations! Are they going to give you new responsibilities?
