Hi Jason, i don't think anyone has thought you're crazy, i don't think anyone has even disagreed with you. Nor do I think you have opened up a can of worms. I think it’s a healthy discussion about a problem that most people that deal with the public realize. i'm just pointing out that this is one thing, that in a million years you will never be able to correct, if you are waiting for parents to correct it. can't you just see it, three hundred years from now, someone will be writing into the antique flying saucer page talking about how the kids were playing all over the restored flying saucers, and why don't parents act like i want them to act. you know its going to happen. i'm just saying that if you want to deal with the problem, YOU or your club is going to have to deal with the problem ( I think that’s what a lot of those parents are looking for anyway, “please, someone else to deal with my kid for a few minutes“). cause you are never going to change kids or their parents, as a whole. i want to make it clear that i respect the works of others whether their own or purchased. i consider myself a craftsman of sorts. i don't let my kids play on others stuff. and i also am taken back when i see it happen. but its not just you, i see that stuff from wal-mart to the college i teach. I posed what I thought was a possible solution, distraction (I spelled it “destruction” until my spell checker get it) to other tractors or events more suited to kids. I would like to see someone write in with other methods of dealing with the problem. I’ve gotten at least one idea that I consider good from the discussion. Ok?

I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
