Re: So long and other things

Harvesters, gleaners, et.al.
I can't afford the cell phone charges that would be required if I were to 
stay connected to the net down in the desert, so am leaving the digest 
and everything else internet related until late April. 
I love the digest, get wonderful satisfaction out of the exchanges of 
information and opinions in which we engage. As has been pointed out a 
number of times, the IHC digest has class, its members are polite, 
humorous, appreciative, and helpful. Participating has become a really 
valued part of my daily routine.
Our friend, Howard, has dazzled me with mathematical brilliance and I 
need to confess that I was in error when I said that a high resistance 
circuit, say to the starter, drew more amps than a low resistance 
circuit. Actually, he did not so much convince me by the strength of his 
logic as by his threat to turn the convincing over to two of his digest 
cronies with whom I am going to be privileged to spend some time over the 
Easter vacation. The threat of that quickly drove me to capitulation. I 
also am willing to confess that it is me in the black helicopters 
hovering over you seeking to find some one of you abusing your IH vehicle.
Regards and see you in late April or at Tulare if you are going to be 
there.
