This is my 100th post on fabo!

The whole idea of a shared pool of knowledge that can be accessed almost instantly is something that I couldn't have possibly forseen when I first got into the hobby in the early 80's. I don't how old you are, but if you're 40 or older. you know exactly what I mean.

I remeber hitting the library to get any and every book they had on mechanics, basic electricity and high performace. :read2:The pickings were mighty slim back then, as this was the beggining of the age of the yuppie, and anyone who actually wanted to work on their own car was considered a big loser. They even pulled the shop out of our high school right after I graduated, both the metal shop and auto shop.

Anyway, to get information was very difficult and the phone was my only recourse. I used to hassle my shop teacher and brother in law constantly. Getting part numbers and interchange information was almost impossible.

With the advent of the internet, this information can be gathered almost instantly. To me, it's such an important tool that I ran a LAN line into the garage, lol!

Anyway, glad to see that you've made great use of this tool and are sharing your knowledge as well. Keep it up and you'll be a post ***** just like me! :cheers:LOL!
