*laugh* dishonest as always Parker. Did I say anything about talking to 
an engineer? No. Although most engineers I've known who were worth 
anything would tell people straight up if the product they worked on was 
crap. It was funny to see some of the consumer mag reviews of stuff I was 
very familiar with...

I see the point has gone right over your head. Remeber the great ABS 
threads? You argued engineering as it was presented to you by mass media 
publications. In other threads you chastised people for getting science 
from mass media publications. That's the memory your recent comments 
brought back.

The double replies to the same posts too... where have you been? really 
it would be much more fun for you to be back and displace gpsman and his 
gender-nonspecific buddy in CO.
