Yep. Including Sugarwood.

He defends his position and is consistent in his mindset. Makes for good banter.

Of course, he is wrong. He confuses hobbyist human nature with resource constraint and tosses out Venn diagrams like a drunken sailor. However, I digress.

I say let him live.

Whoever said "It's about the beer" is correct!

Speaking of which, yo' Fint, it would be great if you could limit your sleep time to two hours, instead of your usual three, and spend that extra wakefull time designing and building plug-and-play, solid state relays for 911s (mainly the fuel pump relays, but would be useful in other applications as well) . . . the Porsche, "might work . . . for a little while", relays are utter crap (look like their half baked components are soldered together by six year olds). That's one thing that pizzes me off about Porsche; bisches sometimes sell shiit and charge a lot for the privilege of being stranded on the roadside at a moments notice (like the combination overboost switch & air metering arm safety switch relay that lasted less than 300 miles before it went teets up while I was in rush-hour traffic on one of the busy highways here - total shiitslap there!).

The OP is totally misreading 'the problem' altogether.

Who would travel great distances and go far out of their way just to learn from another person?
Anyone with a university degree for one.

Who would do the same to give their personal unpaid time and help solve a problem?
Volunteers, enthusiasts, karma collectors and saints.

Well stated.

Who would consistently ask inane, rhetorical questions, sucking the time of the membership here for no valid reason other than to incite emotional response?

That would be a troll.

Pnutz is infatuated with your fat bottomed girl...so you better let him know that you are savin' it for him.

I figure that Brit guy that makes the fancy CDI and electric air conditioning will expand to do make a better relay soon...as he is halfway there...and there is nothing hard about relays.

Besides...I am busy reading Bob K's inane, rhetorical question about inane, rhetorical questions that suck the time of the membership here for no valid reason other than to incite emotional response. Why are so many folks sucking in this thread but no one seems to be getting any satisfaction?

pNutz is not ready for turbo powaaa' - bisch would shat himself, for sure!!!

Good point about Jonny and relay development - will keep an eye on him (not like that! ).

As far as the sucking 'v' satisfaction goes, maybe those peeps just need more practice (Akron Ohio style)?!?!

Spot on..my 911 purchase, and tech experience via this board, etc. was ALL about something "absolutely new" for me...while I was bored at work waiting to "fix" a complex IT infrastructure problem. My high tech career wasn't about the $$ either. Statisfaction.....both provided that....Mick just had issues

Nicely said.

For me, the eye opener in this thread was the distances involved are not as tightly bounded as I assumed. My premise of DIY collaboration futility was operating under the assumption of local proximity, like within a 30 minute radius. It did not occur to me that people drive several hours for DIY collaboration. That really does change the viability of such collaboration, particularly when dealing with a very sparsely distributed skill set.
