Hey Isimo!!!!I wonder if Plastic Man considered the bovine contribution to global warming when he "invented" his award winning computer model that predicted the melting of the polar ice cap because of soccer mom SUV emissions. I heard that there is a Wisconsin start-up company that has purchased the vacant American Motors plant in Kenosha, where they are developing plug-in cow technology. I also heard that a company in Oklahoma (you know, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain) has a working prototype of a wind powered cow that they call the "Blovine"... Of course, as my pal, Ferrari Bubba is given to say: I could be wrong. I think that the time I have spent reading the list is corrupting reality for me. Yer fair and slightly unbalanced pal living in the tiny, very small, and insignificant village (and it takes a village, you know) of Anybody-But-Billary, Minnesota Regards -----Original Message----- From: ferrari-request [at] ferrarilist.com [mailto:ferrari-request [at] ferrarilist.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2008 5:16 AM To: rtpetrick [at] comcast.net Subject: Ferrari Digest, Vol 18, Issue 23 Send Ferrari mailing list submissions to ferrari [at] ferrarilist.com To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lists.ferrarilist.com/mailman/listinfo/ferrari or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to ferrari-request [at] ferrarilist.com You can reach the person managing the list at ferrari-owner [at] ferrarilist.com When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Ferrari digest..."

There should be no pressure on it, just take it off, press out the old and press in the new. A bit of lube would help.

My new dream car just went by!! An early 60's 250GT Berlinetta - what a gorgeous car - and when the V-12 gets wound up the sound was amazing - well, as good as my surround sound can make it - I can only try to imagine what it would sound like in person! I know the new F430s and 550s/575s are amazing cars - but there's something about the older cars that pull my heart strings. Dennis Liu is going to say I'm living in the past - perhaps. Of course, if I were to drive a new F430 or a 360 then jump into a 250GT I may not believe how ancient the 250GT is - or how luxurious the 430/360 is and decide I want all those creature comforts. I may be wrong but I don't think so - my 66/67 (built as a 66 but registered as a 67) MGB is made in the old fashioned way of building sports cars - nothing added that doesn't make it faster (all being relative) - even the radio & heater were options many people didn't buy. Sorry - having a nostalgic moment and wanted to share it. ;-) Have a nice week ya'll -- Larry T (67 MGB, 74 911, 78 240D, 91 300D) www.youroil.net for Oil Analysis and Weber Parts Test Results http://members.rennlist.com/oil PORSCHE POSTERS! youroil.net Weber Carb Info http://members.rennlist.com/webercarbs . ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2008 21:17:23 -0800 From: "Hans E.

I probably could spend some 4 or 5 hours on Googol (did you know that they spelled it wrong?). But this came up recently and I thought I could shave some time off of my research. I had an argument with my attorney about Global Warming And Cars are COMPLETELY responsible. Most of these guys seem to be somewhere left of Chairman Mao. I need some ammo. 1) I need some reasonably accurate/reliable source for the Cow Fart statistic. 2) I need (as above) figures about auto C02 .vs. the rest of humanity - power plants, etc. I tried to tell him that us bipeds are not all that significant in the overall scheme of things, but it fell on deaf ears. I'd also like to get some decent stats on Al Gore's energy consumption (not granola, but his house and airplane). Help, guys. Our hedonistic ways are being challenged.

White Paper indicating that animal husbandry - vi flatulence, waste, destruction of forest lands - is the leading cause of ozone depleting emissions. Also, look up the stats on emissions via volcanic eruptions. Mt. Penetubo (sp?) ejected more ozone depleting chemicals along with a significant amount of heavy metals and other particulate matter than (according to some sources) an entire decade of cars. However, the one difference to consider is that we CAN control our emissions. Scottie On Jan 15, 2008, at 12:17 AM, Hans E. Hansen wrote: > OK, OK.

My 308 GTSi arrived on a transporter Sunday at noon. The transporter was the nicest truck of this kind that I have ever seen. It had more moving parts and hydraulics than a WW II bomber. My heart was pounding as she was unloaded from the top deck and onto the rear door -which turned into an elevator. Several neighbors stopped to look at the big truck, then perked up their ears when they heard the wonderful exhaust note as she was started up. I opted out of the detailing to get a spot on the transporter a week earlier. She (yes she!) is dirty, but cleaning and maintaining is a part of the fun. I'll post some pictures when she is cleaned up. I still can't believe that she is here. Like several people who posted replies, I find myself up in the middle of the night, going down to the garage and turning on the lights for a quick look. Thanks to all who suggested parts suppliers? I have most of them bookmarked and did a couple of test purchases to see how they responded. T. Rutlands came in first. At the risk of re-igniting the topic, the car is a she.
