I usually change my own oil in my cars. But this time take my car in for a oil change as it was in the single digits outside. Mechanic comes out (he looked all of 20yrs old) and asked me how oil does my engine take? I checked it after it sat overnite the next day. Full quart over. Another time take it to a Jiffy Lube (never again) as I was traveling and car was still under warranty. Ask for the synthetic oil. Just happen to be sitting in waiting room where when I look up from the magazine I am reading I can see the tech putting plain old 5w30 in my car. By the time I get up and pop my head in and remind him I need 5w20 synthetic he is done. Mgr frowns and says something to the tech. Tech dumps oil and puts synthetic in. Next day I notice a drip in the driveway. Can't do anything about it as I gotta drive to 2+ hrs back and forth to work in Philly that day. MISTAKE. Next day backing into spot at work I hear this strange clunk! Cold as hell out and I gotta get inside. That nite I come out and start car, move about 10 ft and oil light comes on. Oil all over. Dark, cant see. Get ride home. Next day have the car towed by Mazda road side assistance for free. Dealer calls to tell me the oil filter fell off! They did a new oil change and test drove car. Said is seemed fine but only time would tell if I damaged any bearings. And oh, by the way we have voided your engine warranty due to the fact you drove the car with no oil. WHICH I did not do. I traded the car in at a Mazda dealer late one day on a Saturday. Tuesday when I went to pick up my new one GM was mad. "If you don't want the trade In let's just drop the whole deal!" Take it a stick it Mazda. Pete

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of David Brown Tractors - by Samuel Kennedy. I was born in 1950 and reared on my family�s 100 acre farm. It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
