There is a difference between "I like breathing air", and "I breathe air, and I love it; therefore you must do the same thing- or something is wrong with you". Start preaching the gospel of breathing air, and I totally expect people will have a problem with it. People like hearing opinions, suggestions, and stories of personal experience. People do NOT like to be told what to do! At least in this ball joint issue, you owned up to your mistake and clarified that this screwdriver slot is common to Ford, and not all cars (clearly a result of your limited exposure to anything non-Ford). Now, lets work on that other statement- "...usable spare tire -- a piece of emergency survival gear that has been standard equipment on every single automobile ever built since the Model T forward." Maybe you meant "standard equipment on every single FORD automobile ever built"?? I don't know if that is true either, I just read that 2010 (and newer) Mustangs do not have this "standard equipment". --- On Wed, 5/2/12, content22207 <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > It is a Ford thing too: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/577946_387177637994159_100001057778755_1144506_1365621977_n.jpg > > I have come to the studied conclusion that if I said I like > breathing air, somebody on the DML would argue that oxygen > was in fact bad for me. > > Bill Robertson > #5939 ------------------------------------ To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnewsYahoo!
