Why would you doubt everything that you've read over the years in
trade magazines (most of them experts in their field - plus your
own experience) just because one guy in some newsgroup trashed
it all?...
There's not very many people posting here who I believe in
implicitly and Tegger ain't one of them.

Just curious here Hachi, but just HOW OLD is the thread you're
replying to?
Is it this one?:

How very kind of you. You really seemed to like what I posted at
the time, so much so that Philip got jealous.

By the way, your sig is not compliant. You need a space after the "--",
(as in "-- ") otherwise intelligent newsreaders cannot recognize it a
sig.

WHAT?! I didn't say that!
IIRC, there was a guy that wanted to jump up some car and posted a
question about the stuff. Might have been from NZ, IIRC. I told him not to
waste the money and look for something else. I believe he was wanting to
hop up a Starlet.
Where did you pick up this thread, Gord? It isn't even on my server any
more!!
Or is this just one of those posts that got lost in CyberSpace and finally
decided to land...?

My God! That was OVER a YEAR ago, about 5-6 weeks after I joined the
group! We were talking about Octane, and I mentioned I had read somewhere,
or somebody had told me that higher octane burns slower. OMG!!! Where has
this message been for a year!!

Come to think of it, I hooked up an old hard drive I hadn't used for a
while from another computer. I opened PAN, my newsreader, and went to
respond to a current post, and it hung, so I restarted it and hit Send
Pending Messages.

No, Gord did. Shoulda been clearer when I was responding.

Yeah, like those wacky mailmen who store two years of mail in their
basements before they're found out?
