The power of forums like this...

Interesting story in the NYT:

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/13/automobiles/13STEAL.html

Forums like this one and others I am on continue to renue my hope for the human race with stories of people helping out each other simply because they share a love of the automobile...

Best regards,

Michael

Oh I know of that. Read the whole bit several times. It is a great thing. Did anyone actually get arrested though? IIRC no one got nailed for actually steeling them... I'll have to read again and see what the end result was.

I was just amazed at the speed of this new story...

Best regards,

Michael

Good to read actually, lol, I know what you mean... every day I come to work I lose a little more faith in humanity. It is nice to know there are still just car guys left.
