Actualy if you look under Village idiot you will find me. I'm a old man whos been kicked a few times myself. Ben to the Nam, volenteer fireman close to 30 years and on the EMS crew for 30 as well. I volenteer to drive the Disabled Veterans Van whenever. I spent the last week and a half working the floods.

To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
