Now  let's take all the talk of suicide doors, presidential visits, and
Subarus  to VVtalk as well.






Mark, ole buddy ole pal....
The suicide doors were seen on a Corvair, so there IS some Corvair content  
to that one....
 
The Presidential visits have gone the way of the dodo bird in the last few  
days, so there's NOTHING to move to VVtalk as far as that one is  concerned...
 
The Subarus... well, when you hear about a guy wanting to put a Corvair  
engine in a Subaru, you tend to wonder "WTF" (where's this freak?).... but if  you 
look at the 2.7L Subaru engine from the XT6 and then look at the OHC Astro 1  
engine, you can see where the similarities are... one of those engineers HAD 
to  been a Corvair fan at one time or another... or maybe they figured they 
could  improve on an abandoned design, just to show there were possibilities for 
 it...
 
To ban the occasional Subaru topic is to ban Tony Underwood's ramblings...  
which would then ban Smitty from complaining about Subaru topics on the Corvair 
 list... we can't have that!
 
Banning Subaru possibilities in Corvairs is like saying the 60 Corvair in  
Cuba that has the watercooled Soviet 4 banger in it (since Corvair parts in Cuba 
 are nonexistent) isn't a Corvair, or talk of it doesn't belong here....
Shame on you... someone with the background you have of passionately  
promoting and preserving the Corvair.... shame, shame, shame!
Now, go stand in the corner for 10 minutes... you can come back and play  
when you promise to be a good boy!

I'm done with this soapbox... anyone else wanna use it?
;-)
Later,
Lonzo
