Steer clear of people with antinuclear bumper stickers pasted on their cars.

They are interested in preserving mankind, which is admirable. They are not necessarily interested in preserving you, or themselves, for that matter.

They have more important things to think about.

Well Howdy Bear!
Whoa, a real live US Marshal, already I can see you on your horse in a stedson, signing up a few deppedees and promising justice for the godfearing folk of this town.
Welcome to the forum, have fun, and make sure you come back. Are you planning on riding into LM this year?

Welcome Bear. Just read your notes of last year.

Interesting that the suits in the Audi hospitality had "a three lane 1/32 scale slot car track measuring about 12 x 18 feet on the porch of the pavilion. Invitees were busy running model Audi R-8s off the track on a continuous basis. There were some lovely ladies in attendance whose job it was to re-rail the cars."

Keep coming....
