Of course.  My house is 58 years old and our water is among the 
hardest ranking in the country.

The film isn't slimy at all in my D.  It's powdery.  Only when I spray it 
with Windex does it get white and milky.

Considering what fixing the Hummer will cost, yes that is my only 
option for now.  Same for the D, I suspect, if that's indeed the 
problem.  I wish I could wrench on my vehicles like you do!

I'm in Tucson, where "cold" means the temp drops below 60.  If it 
gets below 55 you can hear a mass whine across this town.  I really 
don't need a heater here.

That had to be awful - I know it can get really cold there.

Be glad the icy/snowy storm is staying well to the north of you.  My 
kid just went back to PA during the brunt of it.

HAHA - I don't mind - it's in the 60s and sunny these days.  I suppose 
the NorthEasterners don't want to hear it, though ;)
